DoubleClick with key pressing on viewer [message #911243]

Hello,

I am trying to implement a doubleclick listener which uses key pressing, too.
For example I want to open another editor I click double on the item while pressing the ctrl key.

Adding the DoubleClickListener is very easy with the method addDoubleClickListener from the viewer class.

But how to combine both?
My idea was to get the pressed key while the event occured, but I don't know how to get that information.

Thanks for any advices.

The double click event originating in SWT does contain info about the
pressed modifier keys in its stateMask, so if you're able to get at the
viewer's underlying SWT Control then you can add an SWT.MouseDoubleClick
listener to the SWT Control instead of adding it to the viewer.

If you're not able to do this for some reason then you can ask about
this on the eclipse.platform.jface newgroup/forum.
