Is the PaletteViewer portable? [message #184338] Sun, 12 June 2005 20:07 Go to next message

I was wondering if I can attach a palette viewer to a sash form composite
where the left side is a view and the right is the palette which need to
act as DragSources. The reason why I ask this is right now the right side
is a ToolBar control which is acting as a DragSource and this has a lot of
visual limitations. I have a legacy view that I need to enhance so
starting from scratch is not an option. Any help would be greatly
appreciated.

Regards,
Harsh

I'm not sure what you exactly want, but the BIRT project uses the
palette in a separate view if you want to look at that code. You should
really be able to place the palette anywhere you desire.

I will try ot clarify a little. The problem is the PaletteViewer requires
an EditDomain which from the source code in GEF seems to only work with
IEditorPart's. I need it for an IViewPart. The ViewPart that I have
created is hosted in a sashform with 2 panes, one with a tree viewer, and
the other with a toolbar. Now, I want to yank out the toolbar and pop in
the paletteviewer.

Thank you,
Harsh

Nope, you've got it wrong. Nowhere in EditDomain does it require
IEditorPart.
