Question

I'm working on an Eclipse editor based on GEF. I've added a zoom control for the editor, but I want it to look differently (specifically, I want it to be slider instead of a combobox). Does anyone knows how can I do this? Thanks in advance, Daniel

Was it helpful?

Solution

It's easy, just override the 

org.eclipse.gef.ui.actions.ZoomComboContributionItem.createControl(Composite)

to create a slider, and call 

org.eclipse.gef.editparts.ZoomManager.setZoomAsText(String)

with correct parameters.
