I have a GEF plugin based on the logic diagram plugin example. In my
plugin and in the logic diagram example, the width of the palette is not
maintained in consecutive design sessions, all other views are
maintained through a magic platform mechanism.
How should I make the palette width persistent as well?
Regards,
Jeroen.

Thanks,
I find it rather strange that I need a complete preference store to just
maintain the width. Why can't I just get the width from the
GraphicalEditorWithPalette and store it in the plugin's preference store?

Ooh, that was stupid... It was right in front of my nose.
Overriding the getInitialPaletteSize() did the trick.
