Hi,
I've noticed that button actions of property editors which have the @LongString annotation are aligned horizontally which isn't very conservative of screen space. LongString editors should probably be added vertically as in Multiline property editors.. Should I open a bug for this?
While I'm at it, is it possible to add an action to a property editor so that the action will always be active - even when the property editor is disabled? I understand that in this case the action loses relevance to the editor, but adding actions under properties is the most visually appealing way of showing actions next to properties (I could add actuators to the property editor's related content, but it looks less appealing as the minimum width is 20).
Thanks,
Roded

Basically, I'd like to allow the user to be able to copy a property editor's value to the clipboard even when the editor is disabled.
If I add the "Copy" action to the property editor, it'll disable with the editor..
Another way to look at it: Is it possible to allow selection & copying of text in a disabled editor? (I think SWT doesn't allow this...)
