Hi,

I'm developing an RCP application with Eclipse 3.7.0. My application has several perspectives, all having only views, there is no editor at all in the application.

Now, I need to create several views rendering data as trees with drag n' drop functionalities, context (= right click) pop-up menus, etc. I'm considering extending the CommonNavigator, for it provides must of the features I'm interested in. So far, I'm doing quite well but I would like to do a bit of UI tunning. For instance, as I have no editors at all in my application, I would like to get rid of the yellow button "Link with Editor".

Do you know how to do that?

Thanks a lot,

McNuggets

You can do this in thee org.eclipse.ui.navigator.viewer extension point. Look at the documentation for that, there an element called "property" and it can be set to one of the values in INavigatorViewerDescriptor class. At the end of the extension point documentation section there is an example of how to set the properties.

Yes!! Well done, thank you Francis!! That looks so easy, now. I give the XML code, in case this may help some other:

   <extension
         point="org.eclipse.ui.navigator.viewer">
      <viewer
            viewerId="my.view.ID">
         <options>
            <property
                  name="org.eclipse.ui.navigator.hideLinkWithEditorAction"
                  value="true">
            </property>
         </options>
      </viewer>
