Hello,

How do I contribute an action so that it only appears when that perspective
is active (open) ? Is there something special that I would do on plugin.xml
?

Thanks,

-Luis

Hi Matt,

Thanks for the quick response. I tried your suggestion, however, when I =
switch perspectives, the actions still remain. I'm using RCP M7 I =
believe. Here's the code that swithches perspectives, perhaps, I'm =
doing something wrong ?:

if ( action to switchperspective ) {

workbench.showPerspective( "perspectiveID" );
}

Let me know if I'm missing something.

Thanks

Make sure that on your actionset definition, not the perspective
extension definition, that you don't have visible="true", or to be safe
make it visible="false" (I don't know what the default is). If you have
this it would make it visible in all perspectives.

Hi Richard,

You hit the nail in the head. When I switch perspectives now, the actions
go away.

Thanks,
