Hi!

Does anyone know how to control the visibility of an action that is
declared in plugin.xml? I want to be able to filter out menu bar items.

Thanking you in advance,

Guillaume

Which extension point do you use?

A brief howto which describes the visibility/enablement of actions
declared using the org.eclipse.ui.popupMenus extension point can be
found at

The newer "menus" extension point has a visibleWhen clause. Check out the
extension point documentation, especially the examples at the end.
