Hi,

I would like to invoke the preference page dialog programmatically
directly from my code instead of selecting it from "Windows >
Preference...."
menu. Could anyone please help on this?

Thanks,
SL

Hi,

You have to call
org.eclipse.ui.actions.ActionFactory.PREFERENCES.create(wind ow).run()

Regards,
Robert

Hi Roberts,

It works, thanks.

BTW, is it possible to automatically expand a specific preference tree item
so the user does not have to hunt through the settings?

Best Regards,
slam
