I tried to use CSS SCratchpad in my Application and failed.

But somehow it workes in the Eclipse IDE. There is a command, provided by the bundle "org.eclipse.e4.tools.css.spy" which I can see in the live editor.
I can even execute the CSS ScratchPad in the IDE, but not in my application.

What I did was:


  1. added "org.eclipse.e4.tools.css.spy_0.12.0.v20120502-1641" to app dependencies
  2. created a command, with id "org.eclipse.e4.css.OpenSctachpad", which I got by using liveeditor in IDE (there is a typo in OpenScTachpad)
  3. added some bindings to the command. (ALT+Shift+F6)


When I try to use this command - nothing happens.
Indeed this approach workes, when used with CSSSpy, which is provided in the same bundle.

What am I doing wrong?

Is there anything in the log? I don't understand why you want to add another command. I suppose adding the bundle will add the command+handler+binding automatically? (I maybe wrong, haven't used scratchpad in a while).

Nope, nothing in the log.
I thought either, that adding bundle should have added Handler and command automagicylly, but it does not happen.

I added a new command, with the same ID, because this helped with CSS Spy. In Spy the native Hotkeys did not work first, but i created a new Command with the same id, as in the bundle - "org.eclipse.e4.css.OpenSpy". This helped, and triggering my new command triggered the Handler from spy.

This approach did not work for the scratchpad. So I wanted to ask, whether scratchpad is working for someone.

Other people seem to have same problems: http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/m/994138/?srch=scratchpad#msg_994138
