CCSv4 toolbar customization

David M. Alter

Champs,

In CCSv3, there were "Undo" and "Redo" icons on the toolbar for the editor. You could click these, for example, to undo editing changes you made to source files. These icons don't seem to exist in CCSv4, although the features do exist on the Edit menu as clickable choices and also as key shortcuts.

QUESTION: How can I get them on the toolbar?

I tried Window->Customize_Perspective, but this doesn't seem to do the trick (I frankly don't see what this does when I played around with it).

Thanks and regards,

David

Hi David,

There isn't any toolbar button for "C/C++ Coding" commands, as you might already find out in the Customized Perspective dialog, the "Toolbar details" pane is empty.

You can get these commands in the main menu "Edit | undo", etc.. as well as keyboard shortcuts.

Regards,
Patrick

Patrick,

Thank you for the quick response. This is a bummer. People use the UNDO and REDO buttons via mouse click all the time. That is why those buttons exist in most common software (such as WORD, EXCEL, etc.). We should really add it in the future.

Regards,

David

David,

There is a free version of the undo/redo plugin you can get here http://stackoverflow.com/questions/819846/how-to-add-undo-redo-buttons-to-toolbar-in-eclipse.

This will works in eclipse 3.4+. I have tested it in our CCSv5 development enviornment (eclipse 3.5/3.6) and it works.

Patrick

Note that CCSv4 is based off eclipse 3.2 so that plugin will not work with v4.
