1 Fixed view in perspective? [message #449260]

Is there a way that I can have 1 fixed view but have the others *not* fixed?

I'd like to dock a view on the bottom of the screen that is *always* visible and cannot be moved. i'd then like the user to be able to move around/rearrange the other views available in the perspective anyway they want. How can I do this?

You can use IPageLayout#getViewLayout(*) to get the IViewLayout for a
view in the layout, and then update if it's closeable or moveable.

That worked, thanks. Is there a way I can not show the title for this one view, tooo? Or is that really only for standalone views?

Be careful with this solution. If the other views are moveable, they
can still be moved below the view that is not moveable. I'm not aware
of a way to disallow the docking of other views below that view.
