Hi

I have a question about the tabbed properties view. Is there a way that the properties view response to a selection provided by

treeViewer.setSelection(ISelection selection, boolean reveal)

when the view in which the TreeViewer is embedded does NOT have the current focus?

Thank you!

Hi Ted,

I'm not sure. But it is obv not working for you. I wonder if you could fool
it by also firing that same selection from the part that does the call to
treeviewer.setselection?

Best regards,

Wim

I don't think so.
The properties view is intended to be view for the active part.
So it's pointless to response to selection in other part's.
As soon as you switch to the part containing the treeviewer, it should change its contents accordingly.

Can you hack it and call selectionChanged directly on the properties?
