Use Eclipse RCP context inference for UI #23

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Currently, few of the menus know about DepAn contexts.  This forces the
user to search in menus in the Other... selections, etc.  This makes for an
unnecessarily frustrating user experience.

Proposal:

Add a DepAn Project type, with a DepAn Nature.  This will allow the Eclipse
RCP to automatically select the DepAn wizards (e.g. New Graph Wizard) as
top-level choices.

Add a DepAn Perspective.  This should begin with a Project Explorer and the
Tools view.  The Project Explorer should be configured to offer New DepAn
Project as a top-level choice.

On new user launches of DepAn, the configuration should start with the
DepAn Perspective (possibly with a Welcome Page overlay).  This should help
new users get on their way.

Somewhere before the current SVN repository, DepAn natures and perspectives were
improved.  More is possible, but specific bugs should be filed for other 
improvements.
