Toolbar corrupted: how to reset? [message #954727] Tue, 23 October 2012 07:40 Go to next message

Hello all,
I have a problem with Juno.
My toolbar got in some way "corrupted": that is, many buttons are
missing and the toolbar is crowded with separators with empty space
between them.

See a screenshot here:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/cg6ncskngz19wvy/juno-screenshot.png

I don't know how such a problem could occur (never happened with Eclipse
3.x). My suspect is that it was caused by many keybinding conflicts that
were present in Juno, however now I upgraded all the plugins to Juno
SR-1 but the problem persists.

I can't find a way to "reset" the toolbar: there's the menu function to
reset the perspective, but this seems to have no effect on the toolbar.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Mauro.

This bug is related to the problem that "reset perspective" does not
reset the toolbar:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=383569

However I still need a workaround to reset my toolbar...

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Can anybody explain what could have caused my situation and how I can
fix it?

Thanks,
Mauro.

I'm having the same problem. =(

After taking the latest Juno updates via the Help >> Check for Updates menu, I started having problems switching between tabs. I realized the issue was related to the debug perspective, and therefore, tried to reset it. After the reset, I ended up with a mixed up toolbar that I can't seem to repair.

As a side-note, there does appear to be a problem with the debug perspective for me. When I open eclipse in the Java EE perspective, I'm able to switch between tabs (files) with no lag. Immediately after opening the debug perspective (even if I switch back to Java EE), I get a 5-10 second lag switching tabs. The only resolution is to close and re-open eclipse.

I'm not sure if the issues are related.

I'm using a way of removing workspace/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.e4.workbench/workbench.xmi to reset workbench ui. (there is no way to reset toolbars only)

Take a look at https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=385272 and
related bugs.

Thanks for the hint. However, even after deleting the workbench.xmi file
I still have toolbars with many "holes" (i.e.: missing buttons).

Is it normal?
