Customize standard UML Editor to hide selected elements? [message #473642] Wed, 04 July 2007 03:32 Go to next message

Hi, Double-clicking a .uml file opens it in the standard UML Editor (as a
tree) implemented by the org.eclipse.uml2.uml.editor.presentation.UMLEditor
class. I would like to have this editor view not show the Association
elements under a Package. Is there a way to inject some filtering into the
standard editor. If not, is my best bet to implement my own UML editor that
supercedes the standard one?
Thanks for any assistance that anyone can offer, - Jon

Jon,

The editor provided in UML2 is really just a sample. While this sample
provides no mechanism to filter elements, it's certainly possible to create
your own (derived) editor that provides the functionality you are looking
for. Note that the editor that gets launched by default for a given file
extension can be configured in Eclipse, so it's also possible for you to
register your custom editor against the '.uml' file extension...
