Confusion on openEditor and showView [message #453408]

Hi,

Suppose I have opened an editor by calling openEditor, and also I have
shown a view through calling showView.

Then both editor and view would be shown in the editor or just the view as
it is called later. Should I need to use the methods like closeEditor(),
hideView() to show only one thing at a time.

Please help!!!

uh, openEditor(*) would open an editor in the editor area stack, and
showView(*) would show the view in a view stack. You would see both of
them at the same time, and editors and views cannot be mixed up.
