Size of EditorPart [message #437024]

Hello,

I have a perspective with three views holding tables. One on the left,
two on the bottom. When I open an editorpart it opens at the top but is
minimized and i have to move the two bottom views down in order to see it.

My question: Is there a way to control the size programatically? The
app starts with the three views that consume the entire screen. A
placeholder like there is for views would be great.

Also is there a way to restrict the open editors of a particular type to
one?

It doesn't quite work the way views do, even though there is an
IPageLayout#ID_EDITOR_AREA constant. You can show the editor area, but
then you have a big blank area taking up space. It doesn't look like
you can set the editor area with a placeholder.
