I'm setting up the perspective via code. Here is my preWindowOpen method
in the ApplicationWorkbenchWindowAdvisor class.
public void preWindowOpen() {
IWorkbenchWindowConfigurer configurer = getWindowConfigurer();
configurer.setInitialSize(new Point(800, 600));
configurer.setShowCoolBar(false);
configurer.setShowStatusLine(true);
configurer.setShowProgressIndicator(true);
configurer.setShowPerspectiveBar(true);
}
Everything works fine. If I comment out the setShowCoolBar(false) I get
an about an inch of empty gray area between the menubar and the top of
the editor/view. So I assume I have to explicitly NOT display the
coolbar unless I do intend to use that space for buttons.
Problem is the moment I put the following in my plugin_customization.ini
file:
org.eclipse.ui/DOCK_PERSPECTIVE_BAR=left
org.eclipse.ui/SHOW_TEXT_ON_PERSPECTIVE_BAR=false
my perspective bar displays on the left and I get about an inch of empty
gray area between the menubar and the top of editor/view inspite of
having the setShowCoolBar(false).
Thanks
