Hi,
I've got an RCP application with the following advisor:

public class ApplicationWorkbenchAdvisor extends WorkbenchAdvisor {

    /**
     * The default perspective ID to load on the application startup.
     */
    private static final String DEFAULT_PERSPECTIVE_ID = "hrpm.rcp.gui.perspective.WelcomePerspective";

    /**
     * This method is used to create the workbench window advisor, that is the object
     * that can configure the window of the workbench.
     */
    public WorkbenchWindowAdvisor createWorkbenchWindowAdvisor(IWorkbenchWindowConfigurer configurer) {
	return new ApplicationWorkbenchWindowAdvisor(configurer);
    }

    public String getInitialWindowPerspectiveId() {
	return DEFAULT_PERSPECTIVE_ID;
    }

    /* (non-Javadoc)
     * @see org.eclipse.ui.application.WorkbenchAdvisor#initialize(org.eclipse.ui.application.IWorkbenchConfigurer)
     */
    @Override
    public void initialize(IWorkbenchConfigurer configurer) {
	// configure with the super object
	super.initialize(configurer);

	// set the save-and-restore property, so that the workbench
	// will store the user layout when the application quits
	configurer.setSaveAndRestore( true );
    }

    
	
}



as shown the advisor uses the setSaveAndRestore method to save the user's preferences. However I'd like that the default perspective is always shown on top of the others without any regard to the user preferences. I mean, the user can set the window position, size, and perspective opened at startup, but the default one must always be shown. Is it psssible?

Hi Luca,

The restorestate methods in the advisors give you early access. Otherwise an
activator would allow you to open the welcome perspective with


PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getActi vePage().setPerspective(ccc)

Best regards,
