Created attachment 194584 [details] trivial rcp application that demonstrates the problem I am using DecoratingStyledCellLabelProvider with IDecoratorManager.getLabelDecorator to allow thirdparty plugins add text and colour decorations to elements displayed in my view. Everything works as expected if I only use default/null decoration context. Colour decoration does not work if decorations are applied based on properties of non-default decoration context. Attached is a trivial RCP application that demonstrates the problem.
Created attachment 194593 [details] proposed fix Attached find proposed fix to allow colour decoration when using non-default decoration context. I realize this is stretching it, but it would be nice to see this addressed in 3.7 or at least know in advance it will not be addressed, so we can prepare plan "B". Also, looking at the code I believe font and icon decoration code suffers from the same problem. Although we do not currently needs this functionality, I'll be happy to provide new version of the patch that covers fonts and icons... if it makes inclusion in 3.7 more likely ;-)
I'd say it's too late given we're already in RC1.
