Hi,

I am new to Eclipse RCP development. I have 2 problems.
1. I have an application, which has 4 views that are displayed in 4 quadrants. I need to provide maximized view for all the 4 views. I don't know how to capture the maximize/restore event for views, for the shell the event listeners are working fine. But i need to capture the events for views. Please let me know a way to capture the event.

2. I set closeable="false" for all the views, but it is providing close(X) for all the views.


Thanks
Srilatha

Resolved the problem by adding perspective listener to the workbench window, for capturing the maximize/minimize/restore events. And also used IWorkbenchPage's getPartState() for checking the state of the views.

Hi srilatha yatham,

I had a similar issue a few days ago : www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/t/333941/

Which event do you actually capture?
Is it:
public void perspectiveChanged(IWorkbenchPage page,
            IPerspectiveDescriptor perspective,
            IWorkbenchPartReference partRef, String changeId);

of the IPerspectiveListener4?

I used your hint with the perspective listener, but unfortunately it fires the event before the perspective is maximized and therefore I have to wait for a second and then can restore another view than the maximized one.
Does anyone know an event which is fired after a IWorkbenchpart is maximized?

Regards,

Simon

Hi Simon,

Yes i am using the perspectiveChanged() for tracking events. I am using GridLayout for my views, my problem was when i maximize the view content is not getting maximized. So for setting the heightHint and widthHint of GridData, i need to capture the maximize and minimize events. If i maximize/minimize the view, the perspectiveChanged is fired and the no. of viewReferences vary accordingly. So with the use of no. of ViewReferences and one toggling flag i am able to capture those events. But for showing the content maximized or restored, i am hiding and showing views. This is weird, but i have no other go. If you could suggest me some other kind of solution, it would be helpful for me.

Thanks in Advance
Srilatha.
