run action from the UI elements

Answered

I have actions in <actions>  group defined in plugin.xml which are called from the context menu. is it possible to trigger an action from another ui element? for example, I have a panel that has a button and I want to add a call to this action when the button is clicked

Hi Anton,

Please check com.intellij.openapi.actionSystem.impl.ActionButton and subclasses.

If it doesn't meet your requirements, consider extracting the action logic to a service or util and calling it from both the action and button, as mentioned in the docs:
https://plugins.jetbrains.com/docs/intellij/basic-action-system.html#executing-actions-programmatically
