drag-in menu contribution [message #183790]

Hello everybody,

I want to write a plug-in which adds an action to the context menu that
appears when you drag-in a new node from the palette to the diagram.
This menu is usually only shown when there is just one tool specified
for two different nodes and it asks you to choose which node you want to
add.

Can anybody give me a hint how to access this menu? It's probably some
sort of org.eclipse.ui.popupMenus, isn't it?

Thanks in advance,

Matthias

Hello Matthias,

If you need to understand how does this kind of tool works then see:
- UnspecifiedTypeCreationTool
- CreationEditPolicy (UnspecifiedTypeCreationTool handled there)
- CreateOrSelectElementCommand (popup menu will be displayed by this command)
