Hello,

having added the MinMaxAddon ... how can I add the "Maximize"-Button to a PartStack. At the moment I only have the Minimize-Button.

I'm using the standalone e4 Workbenchmodel without forward, backward compatibility.

Regards,
Christoph

We only added that recently. If you're using 4.1M6 you won't have that feature I don't think.

I'm using the indigo 3.7.0 release for development. The e4 plug-ins are in the Target Definition and I try to keep up to date with the builds. Right now I have 0.9.1.v20110331-2030 of the org.eclipse.e4.ui.workbench and *.renderers.swt plug-ins.

That should be okay. There may be a bug or something. You might also want to try clearing out your target workspace.

Hi Remy,

I have already tried that (by activating "Clear: workspace" in the run configuration). I have built a small sample project to show the problem. It sounds like this might be a bug, so I have filed it (including the testcase project):

Bug 342947

Regards,
Christoph

Hello,

following the discussion in Bug 342947 I have checked out the current plug-in from HEAD. I initially got some NullPointerExceptions because I have no "EDITOR_AREA" defined.

It seems to me, that it is necessary to define an Element with the ID set ID_EDITOR_AREA. What is this for and how does it work?

Thanks,
Christoph

P.S. If I modify the code to not use the EDITOR_AREA by check for null, the maximize button will just switch to Restore-Mode without maximizing the PartStack.

Well this looks for me like a bug then. You should not be forced to have
an EDITOR_AREA!

Please add a remark on the bug about this.

Hi Remy,

checked out the current MinMaxAddon from Head. Works like a charm. Thanks for the fix.

Regards,
Christoph
