Howto implement "Press F2 for Focus" on text hover [message #183766]

Hi,

How can I implement the "Press F2 for Focus" thing on a text hover?

I have implemented an editor using the hover in order to show some detail
information.
The hover itself works as designed, but Im going nuts on implementing the
F2 functionality like its done by the JDT.

I searched the forum already but did not find useful help.

Can anyone provide help on this?
Which classes implement this behaviour in the JDT?
Any code-snippets would be very helpful!

Best regards,
Wolf

This is done via IInformationPresenter. Take a look at
JavaSourceViewerConfiguration.getInformationPresenter(...) on how to
configure this.
