Starting help resource in help view. [message #456753]

Hi,

I want to start a help resource directly from an editor and display it in
the help view.

If I do this, it is however displayed in the default help window that pops
up and not in the help view:
PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getHelpSystem().displayHelpResourc e( "MyHelpResource.html");

This in contrast with this call (with a context as parameter), this is
displayed in the help view.
PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getHelpSystem().displayHelp(myCont ext);

Does anyone knows if it is possible to show a help resource in the help
view?

Thanks, Michiel

I have exactely the same problem. I explored the source code of help.ui and I don't think it is possible without some major hack. Have you perhaps solved it any way?
