Hello together,
can anybody tell me how menus are done in VE? I managed to add JMenuBar &
JMenu. I also added some JMenuItem elements but do not know how to get a
WYSIWYG view for these. To see my menus I always have to start the app.
Any other way?
And: How to I add dividing lines to menus? JSeparator is not available in
VE as far as I see.
Cheers,
Arik

Arik,
Both of the issues you bring up are limitations in the current version
of VE. There's no WYSIWYG way to edit menu items with the VE, and we
don't have a way to add separators correctly. The reason we don't
support separators on Menus is the preferred way to do this from the
code is to call addSeparator() on the JMenu, and we don't have a way to
model and reflect this call.
Here's two bugs against the problems you listed:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=73720
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=52738
Sorry that I don't have better news. Although bringing up the WYSIWYG
issue has sparked an idea of a possible way to implement this, so maybe
there's hope for seeing it in the future ;)
