PropertySheet clears when maximized [message #645694]

We have a custom IPropertySheetPage implementation and our view adapting to it and showing the properties of its selected object. The problem is that, when the PropertySheet is maximized, its contents are cleared. I think its PartListener is replacing our custom page with the default PropertySheetPage. How do I prevent this? We want our IPropertySheetPage implementation to remain when the view is maximized without having to pin it.

Craig,

More likely the change is the result of the selection changing. Maybe
some other view or edit thinks it should be providing the selection...

Maybe you run into https://bugs.eclipse.org/325743?

It could be but frankly I don't understand the bug report. I added a comment to it so perhaps I can get some clarification on it.

It really does appear to be the PropertySheet's PartListener that is hard-coded to display the default PropertySheetPage when the selection-providing view is no longer visible, for example when the PropertySheet is maximized. I can't imagine that being by design so it looks like an eclipse bug to me. Further I don't know why the default PropertySheetPage appears empty, i.e. is the last selection being ignored or is there something else causing it?
