wrong handler for keybinding Ctrl+V when using multiple TextEditors [message #821518]

Hi,

It's my first post on this forum.

I've implemented a page in a multipage editor that include three texteditors based on AsbtractTextEditor.

When activating the CRTL+V keys in any of the three texteditors, only the handler for the third is executed, and the paste operation occurs in that editor.

I thinked that this problem was due to a wrong SelectionProvider configuration and tested the SelectionProviderIntermediate solution (with setting of the SelectionProviderDelegate of the texteditor that gains focus).

But it seems that the selection service has no effect on the keybinding "dispatching".

Can someone help me to fix my problem ?

Without any code, it sounds like the multiple editor isn't fully aware which is the active editor.

Hi Brian,

Thanks for your answer.

I've tried to explicitly set active editor to one of the three editors in the page. It has no effect on the problem. In fact, the setActiveEditor method don't call setActivePage because there is no page that has been created with addPage(IEditorPart, IEditorInput).
