Hi,

I have a problem with the palette customization: I created a custom palette and imported it in a plugin, it works if I launch the plugin from the workspace, but it doesn't appear when I install the plugin.

Could be some problem of path?

Thank you in advance, 123star

Hi,

This is perhaps only a matter of configuration of your build.properties file.

It often happens that we create a 'resource' folder in the palette customization plugin and then put the xml configuration file in it, but the folder is not added to the binary build. As an effect, during the build of the plugin, the configuration file is of course not accessible.

You should try to add your xml configuration file to the binary build of your plugin: open your plugin.xml file => go the the 'build' tab => in the binary build table, add your file.

If it was already checked and so, present in your binary build, perhaps you should check in the error log to see if an error was present.

Cheers,
Rémi

Hello, I have a problem with palette customization too.
In my case, i make a plugin with my custom palette(for de composite structure diagram), but when i start a new diagram, de thefault palette appears too, and i like that is be hiden from the begining. how could I do this?..

Could I edit my pallete programatically?...I trying to investigate since some days ago from the source in org.eclipse.papyrus.common, and org.eclipse.papyrus.sysmml, but i dont understand.

Hi Andres,

I wanted to remove the default palettes too, but since I use Papyrus I was told that its not possible for now:

http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php?t=msg&th=170070& amp;start=0&S=f81ae78288c59fe7d3033be054da630f

But if you're not using Papyrus you can look here:

Hi,

new problems with palette export...

It worked fine, both executing the plugin from workspace and installing as exported plugin, then I tested the plugin in another eclipse, the one that must be used by default, where other plugins are installed and happened the same issue:

I can see the custom palette if I launch the plugin from workspace, but I can't if I install the exported plugin.

In the other eclipse it works, so I think it's a problem of conflicting plugins, I also checked the build tab in plugin.xml and the palette folder is checked.

The error log only says that:

!ENTRY org.eclipse.ui 4 4 2010-10-11 17:33:54.625
!MESSAGE Plug-in 'org.eclipse.papyrus.diagram.common' contributed an invalid Menu Extension (Path: 'diagramMenu/filtersMenu' is invalid): org.eclipse.papyrus.diagram.common.myShowHideCompartmentActi on

!ENTRY org.eclipse.ui 4 4 2010-10-11 17:33:54.640
!MESSAGE Plug-in 'org.eclipse.papyrus.diagram.common' contributed an invalid Menu Extension (Path: 'diagramMenu/filtersMenu' is invalid): org.eclipse.papyrus.diagram.common.myShowHideContentsAction

Both with or without my palette plugin.

Other issue: in the other eclipse, where it works, an error appears saying that it can't find an icon resource, in fact the link tool icon is a red rectangle.

Thanks in advance, 123star

Hi, thank for your last answer.
I solve the problem of the red icons in the palette, for do this
when you are building your custom palette, at the time that you add your elements, see the path in the icons property of the problematic elements , and change to other existing path icon.
In my case i have problem for example with role binding element, the path of his image dont have the form platform:/plugin........ i have to change the icon to other, where the kind of path have the form:
plattform:/plugin:......

I have a question, when you make a plugin with custom palette, in the step that you specify the extension point to asociate the palette to an editor, do you specify any class or you just specify the id of the editor?....what class i could specify?...i ask because i have some problem with the id of the editor.

Hi Andres, for specifying the editor of the palette I use this ids:

for Class diagram: org.eclipse.papyrus.diagram.clazz
for Composite: org.eclipse.papyrus.diagram.composite

and so on for other diagrams, in the package org.eclipse.papyrus.diagram.

You must also specify the provider of the palette, for Papyrus:
org.eclipse.papyrus.diagram.common.service.PluginPaletteProv ider

in the class field (the tab with name, ID, path, etc..)

Hi!!

I have exactly the same problem. My palettes don't appear when I install the plugin in another Eclipse instance. I've been unable to solve this. Already checked the palette.xml file and was present in the binary build. No errors in error log.
Could anyone help me?

Thanks in advance.

Dear every one,

I want to create/customize the palette in papyrus. I found a massive repository of plugins here: http://dev.eclipse.org/svnroot/modeling/org.eclipse.mdt.papyrus/tags/0.9.0/plugins/ and I have no idea which sub directories are the right ones that I can use to create my own palette Sad

Can you please help me with this?

best regards,
Leila
