Editor extending StructuredTextEditorXML and the print icon is disabled [message #144976]

My editor extends StructuredTextEditorXML and the print button is disabled
when in my editor. What would cause this? Anything else that might be
disabled that I havent found yet? Any ideas would be appreciated.

I think neither StructuredTextEditor nor StructuredTextEditorXML do anything
special with the print action. Are you able to do everything else just fine
in your editor? Also, as a heads up, StructuredTextEditorXML is gone (as of
WTP 1.0 M8.) There were instructions posted in the wtp-dev mailing list on
what to do instead. But the short version of it is that you should be using
StructuredTextEditor instead. And actually, you should not be subclassing
that class but instead, use its extension points and such to extend the
editor. See http://eclipse.org/webtools/wst/components/sse/overview.html

It's very likely that you left out the editor action contributor
where you defined your editor in your plugin.xml. The
BasicTextEditorActionContributor is responsible for setting up the
global print action so that it routes to the SourceViewer's print
operation.
