HI,
I want to add more menu items to the menu which pop ups after right
clicking in the palette of the gef-editor.
There are menu items already present as follows:-
copy
Layout>
Use Large Icons
Settings...

We have added one more action to the list "Customize...", by writing one
calss
SimplePaletteCustomizer which extends PaletteCustomizer of
"org.eclipse.gef.ui.palette".

Can I add more menu items to this list?
If yes how it is possible?

Thanks in advance for interest in my problem.

Regards

Rahul D. Patil

Override PaletteContextMenuProvider#buildContextMenu() and set this new
class as the provider for the palette viewer.

Thank you Pratik again.
I got success to have my own context menu, as u told to use the
PaletteContextMenuProvider#buildContextMenu().
Now, I am getting the context menu when I right click on the palette.
There is a drawer in my palette. It provides a drop down list, which we
can drag and drop in the editor.
I am getting the right click context menu, when I right click anywhere on
the palette.
Is it possible to have a context menu on right click on that drop down
list (drop down list of drawer) only?
Or is it possible to have a context menu on right click of only the
selected item in that list?
Thanking you in advance again.

You need to look at the selected editpart's model when you build the context
menu, and place the appropriate actions based on it.
