I have a requirement to change the title of the palette from "Palette" to something else. I thought this should be incredibly simple, but I haven't been able to find a way to do it. Am I just being obtuse?

No, there's no easy way... you'd have to override FlyoutPaletteComposite and
then the whole chain of creation of the palette container.

The reason being, is that the palette is also represented as a first class
Eclipse view. If the terminology were changed for a specific editor, then
this would be confusing to users and misrepresent it's function.

Perhaps you are looking for a drawer with-in the palette that can be named
to the specific text you want?

No, my customer hates seeing the word Palette on her palette. But armed with what you have said, I can set this aside. I don't think she will want to pay for me overriding that whole chain.

Thanks!

The English translation of "Palette" is in a properties file somewhere. You
could modify that file, or create a NL fragment which would get used instead
of the default .properties.
