Hi,

is it at all possible to modify or remove existing items from the
workbench menus ?
I'd like to create a new perspective, which will only display some of
the usual menu items of the workbench and overwrite the actions linked
to some others.
If anybody has already dealt with such issues, input would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanx and regards
Alain

There is no API to remove workbench provided menu items. This is something
we plan to look at for release 3.0 (see rich client platform).

What do you mean by "overwrite the actions linked to some others"? Can you
give an example...it sounds like you are talking about retargetable actions
which the workbench does support.

You need to HACK the WorkbenchActionBuilder to make this happen. Keep in
mind that this is where the hardwired menus are added, other menus are
added through plugin.xmls
