Hello,

how can i hide a menue or a toolbaritem?
The plugin.xml way doens't work for all items.

e.g. Menue Design (WST)

		
		<hiddenToolBarItem id="org.eclipse.wst.xml.ui.disable.grammar.constraints"/>
		<hiddenToolBarItem id="org.eclipse.wst.xml.ui.perspective.NewFileToolBar"/>
  <hiddenMenuItem
        id="org.eclipse.wst.xml.ui.designMenuId">
  </hiddenMenuItem>
      </perspectiveExtension>

I am assuming you are trying to do this in E4. The best way to accomplish this is throguh an addon.

It would look something like:

public class MenuItemManager {

    @Inject
    IEclipseContext eclipseContext;

    @Inject
    MMenuItem myMenuItem

    @PostConstruct
    private void init() {
    
        // Here you would register some kind of event listener that programmatically 
        // activates/deactivates the menu/toolbar items
    }
}

While many of the extension points do not work with E4, that is one of the core objectives for Luna (4.4). [1]

But some items hidden with extension points and some not. That's confusing
