Hi all... I've got a rather complicated question, or at least it seems
that way to me.
I've got a multipage editor that contains several different GEF editors.
One page uses a tree editor that's got a specific palette and property
sheet page, and another page uses a composite that contains multiple
tree editors (reused from elsewhere in our code) that have their own
property sheet page and palette. The problem is that the property and
palette views only request the property sheet/palette when the main
editor is activated, but I need it to change depending on which editor
tab is active.
Is there a way I can get the properties/palette views to re-request the
property sheet page/palette when the tab changes? For example, is there
a way I can fire off an activation event that will be acted upon by the
appropriate views?
Any ideas are most appreciated!
Thanks,
-Tom

Following up on my own question... I've figured out a way to accomplish
this -- create a StackedPaletteViewerPage and a
StackedPropertySheetPage, each of which show/hide the appropriate pages
when told to. It works pretty well, actually...
