birt

I'm trying to add a Menu Item to the Run Menu in Eclipse via a plugin.

However, I only want this Item to appear when I'm in the "Report Design" perspective (this is for BIRT). Secondly, (if possible) I'd like the menu item to be only enabled if the extension of the open file is .rptdesign.

I'm not having any luck using either of the visibility or visibleWhen elements in the plugin.xml

Any hints appreciated, Ro
