Hello,
The default "menu path" is "/project", it will cause a problem when
deploy to RCP, where may NO "/project" group marker on menu bar.
Below is something I found in rumtime diagram module, just FYI:
In "org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.diagram.ui.providers", diagram menu was
defined as:
/////////////////////////////////////
<extension id="presentationContributionItemProvider"
name="%ext.presentationContributionItemProvider"
point=" org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.common.ui.services.action.contributi onItemProviders ">
...
<partContribution
class=" org.eclipse.gmf.runtime.diagram.ui.parts.IDiagramWorkbenchPa rt ">
<partMenu menubarPath="/project" id="diagramMenu"/>
/////////////////////////////////////
that is, just after the "project" group marker, it will cause some
problem...
If I deploy gmf as RCP, that is, there maybe no "project" group marker.
So I have to modify the registed "menu path". Unfortunely, it seems hard
to achieve it...
Any idea on it?
also find the previous discussion as below.

Look in

Hi Linda,
If I want to specify the "menu path", such as "/edit", possible?
btw, I have tried a workaround, by adding "/project" group mark after
"edit" menu when configure the RCP workbench. Strangely, it have
problem; diagram menu will dispeared, when open another diagram editor
(I have two types of editor), though it's OK on the first diagram editor.
