Opening views in tabs [message #466063]

Hi,
this is probably a simple question. I have two views that can be opened
simultaneously. I want them to be opened "on top of each other" in tabs.
But all i could find so far, is to define two placeholders in my
perspective like this:

// Einen Platzhalte für den Errorlog einblenden
layout.addPlaceholder("de.gebitms.geplan.ui.view.errorlog",
IPageLayout.BOTTOM, 0.6f, layout.getEditorArea());
// Einen Platzhalte für die Anzeige der Tabelleninhalte einblenden
layout.addPlaceholder("de.gebitms.geplan.ui.views.ViewTabelleninhalt ",
IPageLayout.RIGHT, 0.6f, "de.gebitms.geplan.ui.view.errorlog");

But this opens the views next to each other in different parts. How can i
get these views to be opened in tabs?

Thanks for any help.
Christoph

hi,

I don't understand what you mean by 'in tabs'.

Otherwise if you want them "on top of each other", try this layout:

layout.addPlaceholder("de.gebitms.geplan.ui.view.errorlog",IPageLayout.BOTTOM,
0.6f, layout.getEditorArea());

layout.addPlaceholder("de.gebitms.geplan.ui.views.ViewTabelleninhalt ",
IPageLayout.BOTTOM, 0.5f, "de.gebitms.geplan.ui.view.errorlog");

Is that what you want?

myFolder.addPlaceholder("de.gebitms.geplan.ui.view.errorlog ");

Yes, that was what i was looking for. Sorry, english is not my native
language and i didnŽt know how to describe it. That was probably why i
couldnŽt find anything helpfull through google ;-)

But i have a further question. If i do it like you described, the new
folder is visible all the time. Is it possible to hide it, while these two
views are not visible and to only open it, when there is one of the two
views open?

Thank very much for your help.
