I'm using UML 2.0 plugin on Eclipse for creating some activity diagrams. I would like to insert some split lines (the horizontal bold lines used for expressing concurrence) but I can't find the relative button in the Palette on the right. Also, I can't find any help on the web.
Thank you for any answer and sorry for my poor english.

Hay, has anybody experiences with adding custom annotation types or appearance color options to the eclipse squish IDE? I'm trying to find a way to highlight previously verbalized words in the editor (i.e. **markme_**something(parameter). Sadly I can't find any plugins and as far as I noticed squish is doing a good job to hamper any kinds of external not former installed or in the manual mentioned plugins.
Another of my thoughts are to write an addition to the syntax checker but that would be probably kinda over the top and not that easy to realize. The source code is written in python.
Greetings and thanks!

To mark a search string in the editor you can use Search > Search... (Ctrl+H). Then just enter the search string and press Enter. (While this will open and populate the "Search" view, the search string occurrences are being marked in the editor anyway.)
Perhaps you are trying to let the script editor color (a customizable set of) substrings in a customizable way? I have not found an Eclipse plug-in that would achieve that. The closest I could find (and available in source code form) is Highlight On Selection.
PS: Note that custom plug-ins are not supported in the Squish IDE, but that you can use the Eclipse IDE Integration, and then install the desired plug-ins into this Eclipse installation.
I am trying to cleanly add reference tags in the links I have on various e books and websites. In order to align them, I hit tab on the next lines of the link. The problem is the justification breaks when I do this. Need advice, thank you

If you're using MS WORD then at the top click on the icon and in the bottom you will file two option.Click on word options and go to the advanced tab.There is one column named as Compatibility,There you'll find layout options.Just search for
Do full justification the way WordPerfect 6.x for windows does.
Hope this will help you out.
I am trying to develop an eclipse plugin that does some documentation check on java code and highlights some lines of code in the editor.
To achieve my goal, I DON'T want to create a new editor in eclipse, I simply want to extend the default java editor to draw a line under (or highlight) the methods that do not satisfy some set of predetermined requirements.
Do I need to create a PresentationReconciler? If yes, how do I make the JDT or workbench use my reconciler.
I have never done plugin development and this is my first attempt.
Several starting points for you:
Annotations are an UI feature of JFace's text editor that allows you to visually mark some places in an open editor.
Markers are a Workbench feature, more high-level. They are generic "objects that may be associated with Workbench resources", and they can display in several places: in text editors (as annotations) or in the Problems view, for example.
Depending on what you want to do, you would plug in your plug-in into extension points related to either of those.
The Eclipse Java editor is located in the org.eclipse.jdt.internal.ui.javaeditor.JavaEditor package.
The "internal" in the package name means that the Eclipse development team can change how the Java editor works with new revisions.
Try this help page: Juno Help on syntax highlighting
At the end of the page, it describes how to dynamically add a PresentationReconciler, which is used for syntax highlighting. See if that fits the problem that you want to solve.
I assume you already have a plugin project.
In your plugin.xml, open the tab Extensions, click Add..., search for org.eclipse.ui.editors, then you should see a template named Editor, which will produce a simple xml editor to experiment and play with. Also, you will be able to see the needed structure to define a custom editor.
Hope this helps...
I don't know if you still have a need for this, but you are going to want to use Annotations to keep track of what parts of the editor you need to highlight.
For actually doing the graphical effect of highlighting, you could do syntax highlighting via a PresentationReconciler, but I have no experience with that.
We used a technique we borrowed from http://editbox.sourceforge.net/, replacing the background image of the editor Shell. Its open source, so check it out. (Our code might also help -- its at https://github.com/IDE4edu/EclipseEditorOverlay )
I am developing a plug-in for Eclipse. I have to develop a Java text editor which allows several users to write the code at the same time, the same way as in Google Docs. But I came across the following problem: the text editor has to show the cursor position of the other users who are coding in same Java document. In other words, I want to place a marker in the text editor content (see this image that shows what I'm trying to implement).
I've already looked IMarker, but IMarker is placed on the text editor's vertical ruler, which is not what I want. Can I use this class? If not, what other class should I use?
The other idea of mine was to insert a JTable in the text editor, but I couldn't find the way how to do that. Is this a right approach, or I'm wrong?
Stack Overflow Gods, please help me...
Eclipse has two different concepts for managing extra information related to files: markers and annotations. Annotations are related to a single editor instance, and their appearance can be customized with a corresponding extension point; markers are used to store extra information permanently (and additionally an annotation can be set up for that reason).
I think, you need to use annotations, as markers are too heavyweight for a real-time collaboration. For future reference, see the Annotations in the Eclipse Help; and some time ago I have written a blog post that describes an automatic translation (and customization) of markers to annotations.
I need to make custom text folding as described here: Can I merge Syntax coloring and Folding? OR Projection colored from master document info
I'm digging through code, but its very perplexed... and I cant get access to some classes.
I still haven't found what class decides what to show when ProjectionAnnotation collapsed
I need some info on how folding/projection is implemented, but haven't found any articles.
Please if somebody familiar with Eclipse projection, or knows any articles, help!
The basic goals:
1) make ProjectionAnnotations to show text enclosed in xml tags, instead of first line
2) make ProjectionAnnotations unexpandable(permanently collapsed)
3) remove collapse/expand button (I think I know how to do it, but this decorative and have less priority)
Have a look at the excellent Eclipse corner article, you could also try looking at how Spring IDE implemented it (check out their source code from here).
