Hi,
maybe this is trivial but I don't find how to close an editor when the save method exits. Is it possibile?

You can call IWorkbenchPage.closeEditor().

If I were to use your product, I would definitely get confused and would
wonder where the editor went when I press Ctrl+S :-)

Thank you very much for the hint.
I agree that, in general, this is not a good solution, but since the editors are used to enter only a few data, the client has decided to close automatically the editor when the editing has finished (connecting a button to the save-and-close action).
