Hi all,

I'm using EEF wizardDialog for editing properties in Sirius diagram and I'm looking for a way to show some context help when I click on (?) button of the wizardDialog. Does EEF offer a mechanism for doing somthing like that ?
In the EEF components model, I set the Help ID field for a PropertiesEditionComponent but nothing happen when I run my rcp application and click on (?) button.
Any idea ?

Adel.

I solved the issue by defining a new WizardOpeningPolicyProvider.
Here the code I defined :

public class MyWizardOpeningPolicy implements IWizardOpeningPolicy {

private ChangeDescription description;

public boolean openWizard(PropertiesEditingContext editionContext, PropertiesEditionWizard wizard) {

EEFWizardDialog wDialog = new EEFWizardDialog(EditingUtils.getShell(), wizard);
wDialog.create();
// get the context help id
String myContextHelpId = "myContextHelp";
// set the context help to the main page of this wizard
PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getHelpSystem().setHelp(wizard.getPage("Main page").getControl(), myContextHelpId);
int open = wDialog.open();
ChangeRecorder changeRecorder = editionContext.getChangeRecorder();
if (changeRecorder != null) {
description = changeRecorder.endRecording();
}
if (open == Window.OK) {
return true;
} else {
if (description != null) {
description.applyAndReverse();
}
return false;
}
}
