So in a default selection-list you can select an item then click 'Ctrl' and select more. I was wondering if there is a way to have clicking an item in a selection-list select it or deselect it depending on if it's already selected, no matter if other items are selected. In short get away from using the 'Ctrl' key. Thanks!!
using 10.2b
If I was to use triggers how would I go about starting
Not as a default behavior as far as I know. But it should be possible by using triggers.

I'm having major issues when trying to manually create a new graph and select the data. Not sure if it's some weird browser issue.
When selecting FROM or FIELD and the drop down appears with a range of values, i'm unable to scroll down through the options. When i try and select the down menu to go through the choices the menu disappears.
If i know the field or option i can type it but trying to get to the bottom of a redis issue and need to go through the data we are getting and select the best options for an issue.
Seems to be anything where there's more options than in the space that can be displayed. Here's a screenshot:
As soon as a click on the down button to scroll through the option it disappears
Any ideas or anyone come up against anything similar?
The only solution I've found is to use the mouse scroll wheel.
Is it possible to edit properties with keyboard in Eclipse? Any know keys does either nothing or something random.
I want to:
1) jump between properties
2) edit properties
I dont think you can edit them through keyboard.
Alt+Enter
Display the properties of the selected item
Refresh the selected item
Rename the selected item
Revert to the last saved state

Is there a way to create a hotkey to hide and show the entire bottom tab group? The one that normally contains Console, Problems, Servers and so on...
I want to have it a fastview but as far as I know this is only possible per tab within that group.
I want the entire group to appear on a hotkey and as a fast view.
I am hoping for a miracle here. Perhaps there is a plugin for this? Eclipse 3.4
Thanks!
If your goal is just to maximize editor space, you can double-click on an editor tab and it will grow to fill the entire window. Double-click again and it will restore back down, showing all the other view tab groups.
This might be an ok solution:
Minimise the tag group (minimise button on top left).
Whenever you want to access a view from that group use Cntrl+F7 - this brings up a view menu.
Hold down cntrl and keep hitting f7 to go to the view you want to display, let go. If the view was hidden it is now shown as a fast view.
When it comes to Xcode4.2, I'm really in a puzzle about the storyboard.
For example, I add a label to a view in the storyboard, but after a moment, I feel it's not the thing I needed.How can I delete this label?
You just select the label you want to delete, and hit the delete button on your keyboard. That will remove the object. It works for me.
I use the delete back button!
You can also edit the Document outline, which is just on the left of the storyboard editor. It may be hidden, but you can show it by clicking the small circle with a triangle inside it. Here is a screenshot to help you. If you select items there and hit delete. It will remove them whenever it is possible.
Solution - 1:
you need just to select what you need to delete
then do cmd + back button
Solution - 2:
select component -> Edit -> Delete
If you are using mac then simply select the item and go to the Edit tab and select option Delete.
Edit -> Delete
My question can be split into three:
Is it possible to hide/remove arbitrary context menu items in Eclipse (3.6) by ...
standard UI?
some existing plug-in?
custom plug-in?
I failed to find ways to do this by methods 1 and 2. If the only option is creating custom plug-in, could anyone push me towards the right direction where to start (I have some experience in Java, but not in Eclipse plug-ins).
You can hide menus or menu entries through the standard GUI: see help
To hide a menu item or toolbar button:
Switch to the perspective that you want to configure.
Select Window > Customize Perspective....
Open the Menu Visibility or Tool Bar Visibility tab.
Find the item you want to hide.
Uncheck the check box next to the item. Uncheck a menu to hide all its children.
Click OK to cause the changes to take effect.
But that will hide this entry from all the menus (contextual or not) in which it is present.
So it may not be as fine-grained as you want through the GUI.
You can also try it through a plugin (see also Menu contribution)
The first steps are pretty standard for using extensions in Eclipse.
Open the plugin.xml file and add the org.eclipse.ui.activities extension.
Then create an activity node and give it a unique ID.
Then create an activityPatternBinding node and use the unique ID for the activity to find the pattern node to the activity node.
The activityPatternBinding node requires that you supply a regular expression for the ID string of the UI element that you wish to hide.
The problem is that there appears to be at least 3 ways that menu items and toolbar buttons are added to the UI.
The first way is through the newer Command/Menu Extensions.
The second way is through the older ActionSets Extension.
Then there are other UI elements that appear to be hard coded into the Workbench and do not have ID strings and cannot be hidden using the Activities Extension. Luckily there are few of this third type of UI element.
Considering you are talking about the latest Eclipse, I will copy only the first way:
1/ Use the Plug-In Spy
The first way is to use the Plug-In Spy.
Press alt-shift-F2 and click on a menu item or toolbar button that you want to be hidden.
If there is an ID string under the heading "active action definition identifier" then you are in luck.
This item has been added using the Command Extension and you can use this ID as the pattern argument for the Activities Extension.
But not all items that have been added using the Command Extension present their ID string to the plug-in spy.
As a side note, the ID strings are period separated.
For instance the ID for a button might be "org.eclipse.ui.navigate.backwardHistory".
Regular expressions use the period to stand for any character. Luckily the period used as a wild card matches with actual period characters so you don't need to escape them if you don't want to. I find it makes it a bit easier to read if they are not escaped and it is highly unlikely it will cause any ambiguous matches.
