Hi all,

I have some questions. I made a GMF editor and I want to understand/manage
the menu. More precisely, the generator produces some "extra menu items"
which I can not see in the "extensions" section of the "plugin.xml". For
example the "Diagram" menu which only shows up when a diagram is open into
the editor. BUT, there is no "org.eclipse.ui.editorActions" extension
declared into the plugin.xml... Where does it come from???

Second, there is a menu item "Open File..." into the "New" menu. Also for
this one I can not find anything into the "plugin.xml". Where does it come
from??? (I want to remove it)

Third, in the "Help" menu, there is the "Software updates" sub-menu which I
would like to manage, but, again, I can not say where is it coming from,
so...

Please, help me with this. Thanks,

Floppy

P.S. The menu items I have talked about aren't in the makeActions(),
fillMenuBar() or fillCoolBar() methods either...

Hello FLORIN,

I think this menu came from org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.diagram.ui.providers
plugin.

It looks like a standatd Eclipse menues. If you'd like to remove it try working
in RCP mode.

Eclipse comes with sources; if you know action or class name you can
always find it. Ctrl+H opens the search dialog.

Sorry, I don't get it... My questions were how to get rid of the "Open
File..." into the "File" menu (my mistake if I said "New" in the previous
message) and how to find the "implementation" of the "Software updates"
sub-menu in the "Help" menu...

What are you trying to tell me? To look for what with Ctrl+H?
