Hi,

I would like to know if there is a way to hide/show a view in a customized perspective.

Based on parameters selected by the user, I need to show a different view and hide the one that I will not need.

Thank you,
Cristina

Hi Christina,

you can always show /hide views using the active Page (IWorkbenchpage)

To get it your application must be up and running.
After getting the activePage you just need to call showView() or hideView() using the ViewId (see code below). The same will work for editors using corresponding methods.

Hope this helps
Alex

private IWorkbenchPage getActivePage()
{
IWorkbench workbench = PlatformUI.getWorkbench();
IWorkbenchWindow window = workbench.getActiveWorkbenchWindow();
if (window != null)
{
   return window.getActivePage();
}
return null;
}
