I read all the back articles in this newsgroup about copy but was unable
to come up with a definitive answer. Their are menuitems copy & paste,
but they are not enabled when my EditParts are selected.
Delete is easy because that action comes through the EditPolicy with the
request already formed.
I can't begin to imagine how copy and paste would reach my container since
their is no request for those. Further, upon execution of this command,
where and how exactly am I to copy my objects?
I need a little guidance on this one.
Thanks!

You'll have to look at SWT for details on copy and paste. I believe there
is a clipboard class. There are shortcuts you can take if you do not need
to copy and paste across different applications.
The copy action should be just like delete. It is a global action, create
an action handler which listens to your editor's selection, and register it.

That is what I did. But I keep forgetting to also add the RetargetAction.
So once I registered my own Copy Action with the workbench's ID, then
added a corresponding RetargetAction, it started working. Well at least
its hooked in and calling my action as required, I can do my own
implementation.
