I'm not quite sure this is the correct forum to post this question in, but I'd like to use a form page as the GUI for a properties view tab. Is this possible? I've designed several pages for a multipage form editor, but I want to move some of those pages to tabs in a properties view.

Thanks,
Ryan

Sure, why not reuse the Eclipse tabbed properties view?

Thanks Chris, I had looked at that article in the past. That article seems to indicate that a properties tab uses a section as an input, not a page. Is that correct, or is there a way to set the input to a page? I've already got some GUIs that are of class FormPage and would like to reuse them as is as the input to a properties tab.
