Contribution Item on status line still visible if status line is set invisible [message #528376]

I have created a contribution item (text with one image) onto the Status line with the ui.menu extension

When I programmatically make the status line invisible by:

WorkbenchWindow.setStatusLineVisible(false);

The fast view, memory monitor is gone but my own contribution is left behind.

Do I miss something? Thanks

That refers specifically to the StatusManagerContribution. It won't
effect other contributions (added by org.eclipse.ui.menus) since they
all have their own visibleWhen clause.

It's possible through the use of the visibleWhen and variables (or
property testers) to make your other contribution disappear as well.

Right, I have added visibleWhen to both the toolbar and the toolbar contribution item (there is only 1 item in this toolbar) such that

visible = WorkbenchWindow.getStatusLineVisible();

No luck, the toolbar and the item is still there....
