Showing or hiding transformations

You can show or hide transformations in the list of available transformations in the New Transformation Configuration wizard or transformation pop-up menus by binding transformations to Eclipse capabilities.

Before you begin

A capability must exist to which you have bound the transformation. The transformation must be bound to an enabled capability.

Procedure

  1. Click Window > Preferences, expand General, and click Capabilities.
  2. Click Advanced.
  3. In the Advanced Capabilities Settings window, expand the appropriate capability category, and complete one of the following steps:
    • To show a transformation, in the Capabilities pane, select the check box of the capability to which the transformation is bound.
    • To hide a transformation, in the Capabilities pane, clear the check box of the capability to which the transformation is bound.
  4. Click Apply, and click OK.

Results

The next time that you create a transformation configuration by using the New Transformation Configuration wizard, the list of transformations displays only the enabled transformations. Hidden transformations do not appear in transformation pop-up menus.
Tip: To view all transformations, including hidden transformations, on the Name and Transformation page of the New Transformation Configuration wizard, click Show all transformations. If you select a transformation that is hidden, you are prompted to enable the capability.
