You need to add your wizard as a new shortcut. Either in the
PerspectiveFactory if you own it or using
org.eclipse.ui.perspectiveExtensions if you are contributing to an
existing perspective.

Don't forget to reset the perspective to see the changes when developing.

From my post: "Either in the PerspectiveFactory if you own it or using
org.eclipse.ui.perspectiveExtensions if you are contributing to an
existing perspective.

Don't forget to reset the perspective to see the changes when developing. "

for information on both you can check out http://help.eclipse.org >

I haven't found perspectivefactory on the help, but maybe it has to be with the next I'm going to say

<plugin>

<extension
id="wizard"
name="try"
point="org.eclipse.ui.newWizards">
<category
name="tryWizard"
id="wizard.category1">
</category>
<wizard
name="Your try APP"
icon="icons/wizard.gif"
category="wizard.category1"
class="com.argos.framework.TryWizard"
id="wizard.wizard1">
<description>
Make your APP
</description>
</wizard>
</extension>

</plugin>

I have the next code in the plugin.xml file. Like I have read on the help that you give me, I think I should add something like this:

<perspective
id="org.eclipse.ui.resourcePerspective"
name="Resource"
class="org.eclipse.ui.internal.ResourcePerspective"
icon="icons/MyIcon.gif">
</perspective>

inside the extension section, am I right?. I have seen in this example, resoursePerspective is access by the menu Window. What would it be for appear in the File/new/project?

Thank you so much, and I'm sorry for asking how to do the shortcut, I had misunderstanded you.

If you write your own perspective, you would use
org.eclipse.ui.perspectives. If you want to contribute to an existing
perspective, like org.eclipse.ui.resourcePerspective, then you need to
use org.eclipse.ui.perspectiveExtensions which can contribute just the
shortcut.
