hi there,
I want to set some default options in appearance preferences like I want
to set Perspective switcher positions from Top Right to Left, plus I want
to set default value to unchecked for "Show text on the perspective bar",
also I want Tab style to be Traditional.These options must be set every
time when I create new workspace.

I also want to Show Heap status as default.

I am able to set Perspective switcher position to Left, I made changes in
PerspectiveSwitcher.java file I have added
" PrefUtil.getAPIPreferenceStore().setDefault(IWorkbenchPrefer enceConstants.DOCK_PERSPECTIVE_BAR,
IWorkbenchPreferenceConstants.LEFT)"

this line in createControl(..) method.

But I am not able to do rest of the things.
Please Help me.

Thanks in advance,
Parag
