Hi,

I am using the Browser widget to display some HTML. There are a few menu items on the Browser's context menu not applicable, is there a way to disable or hide them? The ones I like to hide are "Encoding" and "Refresh".

Thanks for the help!

Hi,

Any context menu that you get for free is coming from the native
control, not from swt, so there is no way to add/remove/modify the
menu's items.

The one thing you can consider doing is to replace this menu with your
own (Control.setMenu()). This of course would require you to
re-implement functionality for all menu items that you want to offer.
Some of these would be easy to do via Browser API (eg.- Back, Forward),
some would be doable via Browser.execute() (eg.- Print), and some would
likely not be doable at all (eg.- Print Preview).

HTH,
Grant
