How do I configure a second window [message #713856]

I need to configure and RCP application for dual screen with different views on each screen. I can create a second application window via IWorkbench.openWorkbenchWindow but the second window has the same menus, toolsbars and status bars as the "primary" window.

Is there any way I can configure a second application window differently from the first?

Or is there a completely different solution for managing dual screen applications?

thanks,
Lewis

Hi Lewis,

IWorkbench has and openWindow method to which you can pass a perspective id.
