I am trying to achieve a specific layout of views, and although Eclipse
has a lot to offer in this area I can't seem to get the exact layout I want.
I use the Java browsing perspective with the Projects, Packages, Types,
and Members views all lined up vertically down the left side. What I'd
like to do is "group" those 4 views together and make the group a tab,
with another view (call it View X) on the same tab stack that will
overlay the entire group when selected.
IOW, I want to have View X in a tab stack that will hide all of
Projects, Packages, Types, and Members views when it is selected. I can
get close to what I want by making View X a Fast View - it's close but
not exactly what I want.
Is there a way to arrange views to get this grouping behavior?
TIA,
Eric

Yes, but you would need to use CodePro to get there. CodePro includes a
"Java Packages" view which is actually a composite of the four views mention
above. The composite acts as a single view which can then be grouped with
another view. Here are some pics...
