Hi all,

I am working on a plugin where I need to drag from a graphical editor and
drop onto a regular editor where my source code is. I know it is possible to
drop onto a graphical editor but I am not sure if it is possible to drop
onto a regular editor.

Is this possible? If yes, what would be the way to go for that?

Thanks,
Turker Keskinpala

It is possible, but it conflicts with normal interaction of the graphical
editor. You could require a modifier key like CTRL to be pressed?

Thank you for your quick reply. It can require CTRL to be pressed.

I guess where I am having problem understanding is that how it will be
possible to add a listener to the java editor. May be I should just extend
the original java editor and create my own editor???

Do I just add the listener to an editor like adding a listener to a
graphical editor?

I am confused because most of the articles that I read refer to viewers and
graphical editors.

I appreciate your help...Thanks...

I was referring to the "drag from graphical" part. Drop on Text editor
would require an extension point. It may not exist.
