Hello,
I have code working that allows the user to edit the label figure in an
EditPart via an EditPolicy derived from DirectEditPolicy. Now I would like
to hook this up to a global rename action. The Logic & Flow examples appear
to just hook into key press events and process via an F2 key press.
Shouldn't we be able to hook into the global action registry?
I also noticed there is a DirectEditAction class, but I don't see any
examples where it is used.
Thank you for your help,
Brett

Sure, you can. Look at declareGlobalActionKeys() and addGlobalActionKey()
in your ActionBarContributor. The action that you would add to your action
registry would be the same as the DirectEditAction, but with the correct ID.
However, I think that doing this is not a good idea. The Rename action
shows up under the File menu, and can be confusing since it's really only
meant for renaming files. I don't think JDT hooks into that actions when
renaming methods, variables, etc. Only for Java class files. You might
want to follow their example.
