Direct Edit Focus Issues [message #220127] Tue, 25 July 2006 17:41

Hi there,

I'm currently implementing a direct edit scheme where I show a
customized cell editor that contains a control (durrhh), and what I'd like
to be able to do is have the user be presented with a (SWT or JFace) dialog
that lets him or her do something and modify the contents of the control
accordingly. I've been able to hook the context menu into the control and
show the dialog successfully. However, as you could probably guess, I have
problems when I show this dialog because when the cell editor loses focus,
my direct edit manager thinks it's finished editing and commits the value
(if I'm understanding the GEF-age correctly). So basically I'm wondering,
is there any way around this besides implementing some crazy super custom
direct edit manager? I don't suppose there is a way to 'steal focus' while
not killing the direct editing session, is there? Thanks in advance for any
tips you can offer.
