I am using Eclipse 3.7 to create an RCP application. I am wondering why the tab for a View looks different in my RCP application than it does in Eclipse.

The Eclipse tab,

index.php/fa/7406/0/

The tab in my RCP applicatoin,

index.php/fa/7407/0/

I know the icons are different. I'm referring specifically to the rounded form of the tab.

My RCP applications are just created with the "RCP application with a view" template.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Or much simplier using good old-school way in WorkbenchAdvisor.initialize():

PlatformUI.getPreferenceStore().setValue(IWorkbenchPreferenceConstants.SHOW_TRADITIONAL_STYLE_TABS, true);
