hide single property attribute [message #189075]

How may I hide from my property view a choosen EAttribute of mine? I have
built a working custom tab property view that reads/saves its value, so I
don't want this property to be shown under the full property list any more.

Thanks!

Paolo

don't know if it's the better way, but I did by commenting out

public List getPropertyDescriptors(Object object) {
if (itemPropertyDescriptors == null) {
super.getPropertyDescriptors(object);
[...]
addCSSPaddingRightPropertyDescriptor(object);
addRenderedELPropertyDescriptor(object);
//addCustomCodePropertyDescriptor(object); //don't get displayed!!
addRequiredPropertyDescriptor(object);
addStyleClassPropertyDescriptor(object);
[...]
}
return itemPropertyDescriptors;
}

in xxxxxItemProvider.java

This does not remove the eattribute, but prevents only to be enlisted in
the property sheets. Anyway you can access it by get/set methods if you
need to, this is the case if you do a custom tab sheet property view with
a specific editor for a property (here I have a large swt textarea where
to paste & edit code inside).

Hi Paolo,
You could have achieve that just changing the "property type" to "None"
within your genmodel. It changes the below code for you automatically.
