Hi,

when you open Help > About > Feature Details and select a Feature from the List,
the bottom area is filled with a description (and sometimes an image).

Could someone tell me what I need to do to show my description there? My feature
is already showing up there, but not with any description.

Thanks,
Ben

Thanks, however my eclipse 3.2 did not show that topic in help.

Anyways, the solution is to add a "about.ini" to the plugin that
makes branding for the feature. In that about.ini the keys "aboutText"
and "featureImage" are used.

Thats a bit strange though, I am already defining these properties
in the product-extension-point.
