Hi all,
really sorry to keep asking the same question but I'm really getting mad
trying to understand what to do ...

I have got 7 different views using the same delete command ...

I have got key binding correctly working and the views work on its own
context ...

the problem is ... I would really love to see the delete menu item in the
edit menu to turn enabled when the command delete (that I already see in my
popup menu is active)...

what shall I do ... is it possible???

I know that I can define an action inside the view and make it global via

actionBars.setGlobalActionHandler(
ActionFactory.DELETE.getId(), myAction);

but I have used the command framework just to be sure that I could define
ONCE the command and see it appearing in each view automatically.

Thanks in advance
Kar

What version? In 3.4 activating your delete handler for
org.ecilpse.ui.edit.delete for your view will allow it to track the view
handler enabled state.

We stopped using ActionFactory.DELETE in 3.4
