Add menu option to popup on View tab [message #529188]

Hi,

We have a view which contains a table of realtime data. The user is able to create multiple instances of this view and apply different filters to provide a different perspective on the data.

I would like to allow the user to be able to easily rename an instance of the view and was considering if it was possible to add a menu option like 'Rename' to the popup menu that appears when right clicking on the view tab (the menu that has options like Detach, Restore Move etc).

Thanks in advance.

Andy

That's the "system" menu, and is controlled by the presentation. The
presentations that are added with eclipse don't support the ability to
contribute to that menu.

See org.eclipse.ui.internal.presentations.util.StandardViewSyste mMenu
for example.
