Hi,
I am creating an eclipse plugin which creates a new perspective and
views. These views display tree nodes, and tables which contain objects.
Each of these objects has a context menu associated with it, which work
fine. However I would like to be able to assign keyboard accelerators so
that I can use keyboard shortcuts such as "delete" to delete an object,
rather than having to use right-mouse-button -> delete.
I have used the jface setAccelerator(SWT.DEL) call, which decorates the
context menu to show that delete is the shortcut, but pressing delete
does nothing.
Can anyone offer advice on how I would set these shortcuts to work?
Thank you.
