Hi,

not quite sure if I understand your problem, but take a look at your WorkbenchWindowAdvisor class. There's a method called preWindowOpen().

Add the following code sample to this method and the FastViews are gone.

public void preWindowOpen() {

...
...
final IWorkbenchWindowConfigurer configurer = getWindowConfigurer();

...
...
configurer.setShowFastViewBars(false);
...
...
}

Hi,
Yes You got my point.

I did exactly what you've told but the fast view bar is still there in the perspective and I still can use the fast view option.
what have i missed ?

Hi,

what do you mean by "the fast view bar is still there in the perspective".

The fast view bar is not part of the perspective. It's part of the workbench status bar.

Can you please provide a screenshot so we do not talk about different things.

I've attached the image as the forum doesn't allow me to post links now.
I want not to show this icon or this bar in the image when I open my perpective.
but show it in other perspectives

After you make your change for your RCP app, be sure to clear your workspace or reset your perspective.

Why do I need to reset if I'm modifying in the preWindowOpen ?

public void preWindowOpen() {

...
...
final IWorkbenchWindowConfigurer configurer = getWindowConfigurer();

...
...
configurer.setShowFastViewBars(false);
...
...
}

You would only need a reset if you've ever opened the perspective once without running through that configurer code. Generally, though, you would do that in your WorkbenchWindowAdvisor constructor, no?

During startup the FastViewBar.restoreState(...) method is called, to restore the workbench state from last application run.

This state is stored in your .metadata directory in a file called workbench.xml under folder .plugins\org.eclipse.ui.workbench.

This file will be written, when you've called the method setSaveAndRestore(true) from the workbench configurer.

I assume, you've done this the first time, when you're RCP application is running with the missing statement configurer.setShowFastViewBars(false).

So, if you don't follow the advice of Paul, the workbench state will always be restored from last run, which means your FastView is always visible.

You could take advantage of the reset perspective command as follows:

<menuContribution
allPopups="false"
locationURI="toolbar:org.eclipse.ui.main.toolbar">
<toolbar
id="myclient.ui.windowBar"
label="%toolbar.label.window">
<command
commandId="org.eclipse.ui.window.resetPerspective"
style="push">
</command>
</toolbar>
</menuContribution>
