Hello Everybody...

I've tried to find something usefull in the newsgroups but i wasn't very
successful... Perhaps some of you have ideas or hints how i could solve
my problems.

1. Is there a way to change the initial layout mode of the palette?

2. I want to have a second ZoomTool on my palette which could be used to
zoom out.
I found this newsgroup threads but i could'd figure out how create the
toolEntry by using my extended AbstractTool:
http://dev.eclipse.org/newslists/news.eclipse.modeling.gmf/m sg04132.html
http://dev.eclipse.org/newslists/news.eclipse.tools.gef/msg1 2974.html

3. How could i add/remove entries to the context(popup) menu of the
palette which are sensitive for the ToolEntry ?
After reading this
(http://www.eclipsezone.com/eclipse/forums/m92176531.html) i created my
own PaletteViewerProvider. But now i face the problem to get it used
instead of the genereated one. I could't find a classes where this
provider is set or a appropriate extension point.

Well, i'm stucked and any help would be great...

TIA
Agatha

for rest wait for others to reply..,

You just create a toolentry and set the tool class to be used.

The editor is asked for its palette [provider].
