I am working on a tool (which is built over Eclipse). In that there is a popup menu called "Edit Properties" if a object is right clicked. I need to hide this menu command. Provided that it should not be gets hided from the standard menu, should only be hide from the popup.
How to do this? Can anyone suggest me?

In CDT, How can I programmatically (or via eclipse plugin.xml) enable the context menu of a project "Build Project" when It is right clicked. So that I can make the Build Action enabled in order to solve this problem.

I have tried MenuManager but it returns the top menu? I want to access the pop-up menu when it is right clicked on a project.
What I experienced so far is I can programatically get the flow of program when I right-click a project via CommonActionProvider by defining a class at org.eclipse.ui.navigator.navigatorContent at plugin.xml under which I have a defined actionProvider. Now at this ActionProvider I can halt at debug when I right click the project first at setContext method via ActionContext parameter. And this is the point where I want to get access to the right-click menu of selection.
I can acess the selection I get it from context at this point and because I right-clicked at it the context menu will hapen but how I get the access to this right click menu programatically ? When I right click the project after selecting it via control button I get now the access to method fillContextMenu with parameter IMenuManager menu but the bug is not at this part so I dont need to do anything at this method. I need the access to right click menu when I right click an unselected project (via holding control button). Any idea?
I solved the bug via an actionProvider (enablement for a instanceof IProject.) Here in the class that I extended from CommonActionProvider at the method setContext I got the command via commandService and getCommand method. Then calling buildCommand.isEnabled(); solved the bug.
When developing Eclipse RCP application, on the view part, right click on the tab, you can see a context menu with "detached, restore, move, size, minimize, maximize" actions. I was wondering how to add a new action to that tab context menu? What's the correct keyword for this?
Most of results I found is about the general context menu, which is the one you get when right click anywhere in the viewpart. Where what I am looking for is the context menu from the tab.
Or what I should do is set some properties which make the context menu only showing when right click on the tab area.
What I am trying to do is add an option "Duplicate Tab" to context menu.
Using eclipse plugin, I am trying to add some buttons in toolbar and want to perform some action onclick to that button.
so what i did in extension tab i added org.eclipse.ui.menus and so added a menucontribution to it with URI location- toolbar:org.eclipse.ui.main.toolbar.And then a toolbar in it with a command lets say Design
so by doing this a got a button on toolbar with name Design.
now i want it should be clickable (as for now it is inactive) and on click i can add some behavior/action to it.
please help.
You can use "Hello,World Command" plug-in template which adds a "Sample Menu" in the toolbar and start from that point.
I'm trying to hide Eclipse menu bar to save some screen real estate. I found I can do this using perspectives but that would permanently take out the menu from that perspective. The behavior that I want to get is something along of auto-hide, so that the menu remains hidden until I hit ALT+F for example or any other ALT key combo.
Is there's a setting or a plugin that can do this?
Thanks!
This is just a work around. Create two perspectives.
First one named - With Menu.
Second one named - Without Menu.
In the "Without Menu" perspective remove all menu items and Save.
To create the effect of hiding and showing, switch between perspectives by using
Ctrl+F8.
Theres a fast view option- just right click the tab and select Fast View. It'll bring the entire window down to the eclipse taskbar. You can recover the window by just clicking on it's icon.

Have a look here Is there a Macro Recorder for Eclipse? You could set up the macro so respond to ALT+F possibly.
I have created a right click menu item. On its click I want to show a small popup filled with certain values. Any idea?
Take a look under SWT snippets for instructions on opening new windows of various kinds.

Look under the Shell section.
