How to hide perspective's popup menu? [message #443161] Tue, 24 January 2006 10:49 Go to next message

Hi all,

I need to hide perspective's popup menu especially Customize, Save As,
Reset, Close, Close All. Someone suggest that we use activities to achieve
that but since the perspective popup menu is not defined declaratively in
the plugin.xml, I find it impossible to use activities because there's no
way I can get the contribution Id of the popup menu.

I also try snippet submitted in Bugs #84226 and actually it works as
expected but I don't want to use it because the appearance of the
resulting perspective bar is not the same as the original one.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advanced.

It's the perspective switcher, not the perspective, that has these commands. Why not just get rid of the perspective switcher?

Thanks for the response,

Because I need the perspective switcher anyway. I want the user to be able to switch between perspectives, but I don't want them to be able to customize the perspective using Customize... menu.

Write your own perspective switcher? That would seem to do it. However, the Window -> Customise Perspective would still show up.

Seems like this is the only way to go, but it's kind of reinventing the wheel since I feel OK with most of the default perspective switcher facilities except its Customize... context menu.

In my apps I do not include Customize Perspective... in my window menu.

Since the source is available, there's nothing to stop you recycling code for the perspective switcher in your own plugin, as long as you abide by the EPL. If you don't want to do that for your entire project, you could even refactor out the code into a separate plugin (that is EPL licensed) and then your plugins (under your licence) could then use that. It's probably as easy as commenting out the lines that add the actions to the perspective switcher, either in the XML or in the code.

PerspectiveBarManager perspectiveBarManager = ((WorkbenchWindow) PlatformUI.getWorkbench()
.getActiveWorkbenchWindow()).getPerspectiveBar();
ToolBar toolBar = perspectiveBarManager.getControl();
Listener[] listeners = toolBar.getListeners(SWT.MenuDetect);
if (listeners != null)
{
for (Listener listener : listeners)
{
toolBar.removeListener(SWT.MenuDetect, listener);
}
}
