Hi,
I am creating an RCP application. I place four folders in the Perspective and add views to them (please see the code bellow).
The problem is, If I close all the Views in top folder, the bottom folder expands and the top folder is not be visible any more. It happens for all the folders. But I want to keep all the folders visible even if no views is present in the folder.

I tried it with "createPlaceholderFolder" but it does not solve the problem.
Please Provide some solution.
thanks in advance.

public void createInitialLayout( IPageLayout layout ) {
this.layout = layout;
String editorAreaId = layout.getEditorArea();
layout.setEditorAreaVisible( false );
layout.setFixed( false );

layout.createFolder( FI_RIGHT, IPageLayout.RIGHT, 0.85f, editorAreaId );
layout.createFolder( FI_LEFT, IPageLayout.LEFT, 0.25f, editorAreaId );

layout.createFolder( FI_TOP,IPageLayout.TOP, 0.75f, editorAreaId ).addView("Views.GraphView");

layout.createFolder( FI_BOTTOM, IPageLayout.BOTTOM, 0.05f, editorAreaId );


}

Hi Syeed,

It seems you have a layout problem! ;)

What you want is not possible AFAIK. Only the edit area can stay behind
without content. The other views grab the open view space. The user can drag
around views anyway, this is a design idea with Eclipse: the user is in
control of view placement.

If you want to prevent views to be opened or closed or dragged, consider
using the layout.setfixed method.
