An Editor in a IFolderLayout [message #305202]

Hi.
I wonder, if it is possible to show an EditorPart in an IFolderLayout
next to some ViewParts?
Or is it possible to show a ViewPart in the EditorArea.
In fact, I would like my EditorPart to be placed like a ViewPart in the
PageLayout.
Is this possible at all?
Any disadvantages doing this?
TIA.

Editors can only show up in the Editor Area, and there's only one per
workbench window. They can't be mixed with views in the view IFolderLayouts

Hmmm. Is that also true for my own RCP Application (maybe it is the
wrong newsgroup, would eclipse.platform.rcp be it?).

No way to show editors and views in the same folder group?

Do I have to wrap my view with an editor then in order to open them in
the same group?

The reason why I have an editor is that I ant to use a GEF
GraphicalEditorWithFlyoutPalette.

Thanks.

editors and views can't exist together, AFAIK. And you can't wrap an
editor in a view or vice versa.

Even if you wrote your own presentation, I can't see how you would get
the editor stack and view stack to merge.
