view toolbar not show or in wrong place [message #329356]

I use commands and menus extensions to create a view's toolbar action. The
result confusing me. If I add the view using addView() method, the view's
toolbar is not shown up; if I add the view using addStandaloneView()
method, the view's toolbar is shown but it covers the view's content area
and some of my view content will not be shown. Can someone tell me how to
make the view's toolbar shown up and make it in right location?

thanks
hao

You mean IPageLayout#addView(*)? That's how most of the standard views
are added in eclipse, and they appear correctly with their toolbar.

1) reset your perspective to get the most accurate snapshot

2) are there any errors in your error log?
<runtime-workspace>/.metadata/.log

Hi Paul,

Yes. Using IPageLayout#addView(*) works fine now. But Using
IPageLayout#addStandaloneView(*) still get the Toolbar covering the view's
content.

thanks for your help

Please open a bug at

Describe your usecase so that it can be reproduced (include a sample
plugin if possible)
