Hi,
I have created an editor plugin for ASM source editing. When I launch my
plugin the editor works very well (with content assist and syntax colouring
and my Own Perspective) but in the menubar, all the menu items in Edit menu
(copy/paste/....) are grayed (disabled). In the context menu of the editor
they are activated.
how can I activate them ?
best regards

check out the section in the Help>Help Contents>Platform Plugin
Developer Guide about advanced workbench concepts. You are looking for
the uses of retargetable actions and RetargetAction.
