Intro (Welcome) view question [message #474318] Fri, 05 September 2008 09:17 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
In an RCP app, is there any way to configure the Welcome view so that it
is NOT initially maximized when the app is started the first time on a
new workspace? We'd like it to be visible, but not maximized and instead
visible in a specific location that we specify in the plugin.xml

TIA,
Eric

I talked with Eric Moffat of the Platform UI team and he came up with
the following solution:

Add this code:

@Override
public void openIntro() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.openIntro();
IIntroManager introManager =
getWindowConfigurer().getWorkbenchConfigurer().getWorkbench( ).getIntroManager();
introManager.setIntroStandby(introManager.getIntro(), true);
}


To ApplicationWorkbenchWindowAdvisor

Let me know if this works
