No. It's a coolbar with multiple toolbars. API that allows you to
contribute to it are the ActionBarAdvisor,
org.eclipse.ui.menus/menuContributions, and org.eclipse.ui.actionSets
(legacy action sets).

Why, what are you trying to do, exactly.

Hey Jose,

Can you explain better what you are trying to position relative to what?

None of that information is available through API. Once again, what are
you trying to do? Eclipse controls the perspective, layout parts (like
the editor sash container), SWT hosting composite (like the
PartPane/EditorPane).

If you are contributing an editor/view, you have a control that you can
get the exact position of (passed in through createPartControl(*)).

If you aren't contributing an editor or view, what are you tring to do?
You cannot stick a random control in the workbench window, the layout
will kill it the first chance it gets. Are you using a popup or opening
a dialog?

So is this translucent window that you are making part of your eclipse project? Or is it completely separately implemented??

If you want you can always write your problem in English and below have the same text in Spanish(Just guessing your language).

Hi Paul

Yes, the translucent windows is completely separately implemented, but in the concept this window is model to EditorSashContainer, so I need the position absolute of EditorSashContainer.
how do I get the absolute position of EditorSashContainer?

Thanks a lot again
Jose
