Toolbar Buttons and MouseMoveListening [message #438227]

My application is a pluging with a view and a toolbar.
I have an ActionDelegate class implements IViewActionDelegate and already
listens to push event of the buttons on the plugin toolbar.
How can I make ActionDelegate class listens to MouseMove over the toolbar
buttons?
Or, which class must the ActionDelegate class implement to listen to
MouseMove over the toolbar buttons?
In short I need a way to detect when mouse is over the toolbar buttons.
Is this some thing possible?
It does not seem any IAction methods or constants are available to detect
the action type.

Thanks.........

Use ToolItem.getBounds() to see whether the mouse is inside.

I am trying to reach the tool bar in my PDE View application by:

IActionBars bars = getViewSite().getActionBars();
IContributionItem[] c=bars.getToolBarManager().getItems();
....
....
and eventually I get four toolbars, but there is no way to register any
listener or so..

How can I reach the tool bar?

Ask this on eclipse.platform. This is the SWT newsgroup. The classes you
are talking about are not part of SWT.
