How to hide and Show views???? [message #449371]

I have a Persective with several views, and the TABS disposition is the following:

----------------------------
|VIEW1 |VIEW2 |VIEW3 |VIEW4 |
| |
|VIEW5 |VIEW6 |
|---------------------------|

I want that by default views from 5 & 6 are hidden and when I click on view 1, then view 5 appears, and that when I click on view 2, view 5 gets hidden and view 6 appears.

I tried with:

IWorkbenchPage wbp=PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().get ActivePage();
wbp.hideView(wbp.findView(MyView6.ID));

and
IWorkbenchPage wbp=PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().get ActivePage();
wbp.showView(MyView5.ID);

But nothing. Does anybody know how can I do it?

Thanks.

ok. your code to hide and show view is right but actully createpartcontrol() is called when the view is shown first time.

so it might possible that In your situation view5 is creatating after view1 so it means when the createpartControl of the view1 is called, view5 is not created yet.

so you have to place the code somewhere else.
you can try this code through some action. or you can use partListener to your workbench page.

cheers!
