Question about involving "Cheat Sheet..." action into my RCP application [message #453259]

Hi all,

I want to provide some cheat sheets for my RCP program.

Because I have used org.eclipse.ui.actions.AcionFactory.ABOUT.create(...
and org.eclipse.ui.actions.AcionFactory.INTRO.create(... to add "About..."
and "Welcome" action in my RCP program "Help"'s pop-up menu, I check the
AcionFactory's API again to find out the one corrpesonding to "Cheat
Sheet...".

However I can not find the API in org.eclipse.ui.actions.AcionFactory to
create "Cheat Sheet..." workbench action.

Would someone tell me how to make the "Cheat Sheet..." shown in my RCP
program? Thanks a lot!

To invoke a cheat sheeet in an RCP application you've to
1. First make your program extend to
org.eclipse.ui.cheatsheets.cheatSheetContent extension point.
2. Add a category to this extension and a cheat sheet. Point the cheat
sheet to the xml file that has the contents to be displayed in the cheat
sheet. Make sure that you specify the category id properly in your cheat
sheet coz this is the one that maps the cheat sheet with your category.
3. To invoke this cheat sheet from an RCP i'm doing this in the plugin.xml
file.
<extension
point="org.eclipse.ui.actionSets">
<actionSet
label="%CHEAT_SHEETS"
visible="true"
id="org.eclipse.ui.cheatsheets.actionSet">
<action

class=" org.eclipse.ui.cheatsheets.CheatSheetExtensionFactory:helpMe nuAction "
icon="icons/help.gif"
id="org.eclipse.ui.cheatsheets.actions.CheatSheetHelpMenuAction "
label="Help"
toolbarPath="help/CheatSheets"
tooltip="Help">
</action>
</actionSet>
</extension>

You can try the same. All the best.

Cheers,
