Hi,

Is there a way to add tool tip support in the edit plugin ?
if not, so how could I do this for the tree items ?

I'm not sure how tool tips work in JFace. How are they specified for a
TreeViewer?

I think that label provider should extend DecoratingStyledCellLabelProvider or ColumnLabelProvider to be able to override
getToolTipText() method

Yes. CellLabelProvider is the base interface to get them, and you also
have to enable through ColumnViewerTooltipSupport

great, but how can I add this to the edit plugin as emf has its own structure for extend and I cannot change it
