Description
Currently, we generate a default ActionListener
for every SearchAction
in the details pane:
scijava-search/src/main/java/org/scijava/ui/swing/search/SwingSearchBar.java
Lines 514 to 521 in 14315f8
Allowing for SearchAction
s to provide their own ActionListener
would allow more flexibility, e.g. displaying a small popup menu (JPopupMenu
) with additional (sub-)choices that wouldn't justify the creation of an own SearchAction
for them.
This goes in the same direction as #4 to provide more flexibility to define search actions.
The problem with allowing with allowing ActionListener
as a parameter would be that we introduce an awt dependency in a UI-agnostic SearchAction
, so this would have to be abstracted somehow...
