Description Darin Wright

If I have a java editor open, but have focus in the package view, I cannot use 
CTRL-Space to "select" items in the package view/navigator. CTRL-space is used 
as the keyboard shortcut to select items in lists and trees. If I close all 
java editors, CTRL-Space works to select items in the navigator.

The problem is that the editor contributions are kept when activating a 
different view. So Ctrl+Space is still in the edit menu but disabled. If all 
editors are closed it works correctly 


Nick any comments on this. IMO we should do anything for 2.0 since Ctrl+Space 
is the well known short cut for code assist.

The only thing we could do is clear the accelerator when the item is disabled.
This is too scary for 2.0 though.

fixed in tomorrow's integration build.
ps. i have noticed on my machine that sometimes using Ctrl+Up and Ctrl+Down 
you don't see the focus rectangle. this is an SWT problem - the cursor is 
still moving and you can select with Ctrl+Space

This problem is back in M6.

I can't reproduce the bug you're describing, but I can reproduce a similar 
bug.  Is it perhaps that "Ctrl+Down" and "Ctrl+Up" does not work in 
the "Package Explorer" view when a Java editor is open *and* you are using the 
key configuration called "Standard (3.0) - NEW!"?  (that was quite a sentence).

If not, could you please give more verbose steps to reproduce?

See bug 52957. In fact, the problems stated in that bug include everything 
here, but recognizing a regression is an indicator that a JUnit is needed.

No steps to reproduce.  Moving this bug back to fixed.
