This is my problem:
I use Common Navigator Framework to display files in a folder. When user clicks on particular files (for simplicity lets say starting with "Report"), I would like to disable "Save As..." menu item and toolbar button and for all other items enable it. Is there any simple way of doing this?.
Any help greatly appreciated,
Regards,
Janusz

Your EditorPart.isSaveAsAllowed() should return false

The problem is that when user clicks on the tree viewer ("Link With Editor" is on) the handler isSaveAsAllowed is not called. It is called only if I open editor or click on the tab of any already opened editors.
Cheers,

Sounds like a bug to me. Can you please open a bug with sample
code/steps to reproduce? : http://bit.ly/NewBugInPlatformUI
