I have created a common navigator content extension for a custom project model that is triggered off of the project nature. This extension is working well. I also have a second project model that inherits from the original model but has a unique project nature. The content extension would work perfectly for both models, however I'm not sure how to add or append the new project nature to the set of trigger points for the extension from the second bundle.

Is there a way to update or modify an existing content extension triggers from a bundle other than the one that it is declared in? I tried to create a new extension using the content provider and label provider from the original but ended up with some strange behavior. Do I need to duplicate the content extension completely for the new project nature although the actual project structures are identical?

I found a solution for my problem by creating a custom property tester. I replaced the existing project nature property tester in the navigatorContent extension with the custom one. The custom tester identifies projects that are registered as supporting the base project type. Now new projects will automatically be supported when they register themselves.
