   Hi!

I'm writing a command plugin that's supposed to work on regular UVW-tags. Now I'd like to add my command to the context menu that pops up if you right-click on any UVW-tag. But I couldn't find a way to hook in there. Is there any way to do it? (or any other good way to associate my command with a specific tag?)

No, there's no way to hook in there. Your users will have to call your command in another way, like assigning a shortcut or making a picture.
Another way would be to create a modeless dialog, like the attributes manager, that only works for UVW tags and which has your functions in it. Then users could keep that docked in their layout.

Does anyone know if this has changed in more recent version of the SDK?
Thanks,

I agree it would be pretty cool. It has not changed though.

Best,
