I enabled my keyboard for editing GEF figures using following code:
/*********************************************************** ****************/
protected KeyHandler getCommonKeyHandler(){

KeyHandler sharedKeyHandler = new KeyHandler();
sharedKeyHandler.put(KeyStroke.getPressed(SWT.DEL, 127, 0),
getActionRegistry().getAction(
GEFActionConstants.DELETE));
sharedKeyHandler.put(KeyStroke.getPressed(SWT.F2, 0),
getActionRegistry().getAction(
GEFActionConstants.DIRECT_EDIT));

return sharedKeyHandler;
}
/*********************************************************** ****************/

the delete key is working fine but F2 is working for direct editing....Can
anyone suggest something.
Regards,
Nitin.

Overwrite the createActions() in your Editorclass like this:

protected void createActions() {
super.createActions();
ActionRegistry registry = getActionRegistry();
IAction action;

action = new DirectEditAction((IWorkbenchPart) this);
registry.registerAction(action);
getSelectionActions().add(action.getId());

//add more actions here

}

A little hint: If you use examples, scroll down to the end of a class ;-)

Did you create and installed a DirectEditPolicy on the targeted Editpart?
Did you overwrote the performRequest()-Method of the targeted Editpart
and respond to a DirectEdit-Request?
Did you implement a DirectEditManger?
Did you implement a DirectEditCellLocator?
Did you impement a DirectEdit-Command and return it for the
DirectEdit-Request?

You see, you have a lot of stuff to do, to make an EditPart
directeditable (and I'm quite sure, that I forgot a step ;-) ).

Search for a post in this newsgroup. The title is "old thread: direct
edit tutorial/examples? (Andreas Holtz recommends good incremental GEF
tutorial)".

There you will find a small example where you can see, how DirectEdit is
implemented (without the functionality of a bigger example).

I hope this time I could help more :-)
