I believe Eclipse made a change to accessing the search menu because I had added my own menu item using
menuBarPath="org.eclipse.search.menu/dialogGroup"
But I upgraded to Luna and this menu item no longer shows up, so the menuBarPath would be the most probable guess. So how can I modify it so that the menu item shows in Luna

Since Eclipse Mars? there has been always a context menu on projects, to add the current selection to a working set. This option seems to have disappeared in Eclipse Oxygen.
How can I add one or more selected projects to a working set?
This is how I access the working sets:
It seems like this is now called "Assign Working Sets..." and is found in the same group as "Refresh" and "Close" in the projects' context menu.
Alternatively, you can just drag & drop the selected projects into the desired working set, provided that you are showing working sets as "Top Level Elements".
(Assuming this is about the "Package Explorer" view; the "Project Navigator" seems not to have that feature, but here you can still use drag & drop.)
This menu item is still present in Package Explorer (JDT).
No such item is available in Project Explorer (Core).
Please leave a vote for the bug: Assign Working Sets in Project Explorer, Navigator
Before I switched to this release the Eclipse Navigator had nice feature. Clicking on the file tab in the right pane rearranges the Navigator, so the node corresponding to this file in the Navigator becomes visible and highlighted. I do not see this feature anymore. I am on macosx.
For some reason the Mars and Neon (even 4.6.2) new workspaces I created do not have this feature. But my old workspace in Mars does. So I am thinking that maybe something is not working in my new workspaces.
This is called 'Link with Editor' and has to be turned on. Click the two way arrow at the top right of the view to enable it. When enabled the arrow looks 'depressed':
I work with Eclipse and PyDev plugin.
I want to develop a plugin which adds to the main menu (where File is located), an item "my own custom menu" which contains in it another menu items.
According to some examples, I eventually implemented it by using the extension point of org.eclipse.ui.actionSets.
My goal is when item of "my custom menu" is clicked, it should invoke Eclipse functionality.
for example:
"my custom menu" has menu item called "open new pyDev project".
When "open new pyDev project" is clicked, I want to open the pyDev project creation window that manually is opened by clicking the following Eclipse menu items: File->new->other->PyDev->PyDev Project.
I searched quite a lot and couldn't find the way to do it.
Does someone know how to achieve my goal?
What you want to do is implement a workbench wizard that will add them to the set of workbench wizards; then you can add a perspective extension to add it the the corresponding menu generically.
You have to look up the perspective ID you are using with PyDev, but this is the recommended way to add new wizard items to the corresponding menu.
I just swapped to eclipse Luna (4.4.1) from a previous version and I have a little problem I cant solve.
I don't know why but the class filter in editor window doesn't show the package name of the class you are hovering with the mouse (the alt text). It worked fine in previous versions of eclipse but I cant find any related in preferences.
I dont know if this is the acourate name for this part of the IDE so I show you a pic of what I'm trying to say. EDIT: This is the "Show List" drop-down
EDIT 2: Also happens on eclipse mars (4.5) with a new workspace.
Cant upload images yet
Tranks in advance!
My eclipse rcp application depends on a set of eclipse plugins, after I add them as dependency, the "Run" and "Search" menu appear in the main menu bar.
Which plugin contains these two menu contribution ?
How Can I hide the menu, while I still need the plugin which contribute the menu ?
You could try to use activities and contexts, as described in the Eclipse Help
Which plugin contains these two menu contribution ?
You can use Shift-Alt-F2 and then click the menu (inside your IDE, not your RCP app) to find out the menu id and thereby get a good idea of which plugin contributes it.
