ActionBar contributions when showTitle is false [message #488775]

Hi all,

Has anyone had experience with action bar contributions when a view has its showTitle attribute set to false in a perspective ?

We have several perspectives, one of which hides all view title bars. The problem is that if the view has actionbar contributions in the viewpart code, these contributions are displayed in strange places (such as the top right hand side of the workbench window). Ideally, the framework would handle this however, it seems that we have to handle it. I have not been able to find any way to see if the title bar is visible and then only add the contributions when visible.

Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

All the best,

Mark

That appears to be a bug in the presentation. AFAIK there is already an open bug about the toolbar not appearing above a view with no title.

You can always open another bug at https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?product=Platform &component=UI
