Description Greg Watson CLA 2010-12-07 14:53:48 EST
Furthermore, when I try to start/stop a Resource Manager (probably the most common operation on them by far), I have to bring up the context menu and select from the last two items. If it is stopped and I double click on it it opens up the edit menu (something the user would probably need to do less). If it is started and I double click it shows me the treeview menu. The following two changes would save the users many clicks:
- Change so that a double clicking on a resource manager toggles it on/off (when started the user can see the treview by clicking the arrow (if this is technically possible in the eclipse framework))
- Move the start/stop entries in the context menu to the top as they will be used more often than the other entries

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open the Parallel Runtime perspective
2. Create a Resource Manager
3. Double-click on the Resource Manager
4. Open up the context menu of the Resource Manager
