Visual Editor on Mac - No Palette [message #146084]

I'm running Eclipse 3.4.2 (Carbon) and installed the Visual Editor from
Eclipse's Software Updates without problems. Furthermore I'm using Mac OS
10.5.7. I'm using the Visual Editor on my Windows OS aswell and know how
to create a project with visual class(es).

The main problem on my Mac is, that I have no Palette GUI inside Eclipse
for choosing the GUI Elements I want to use. Instead of that 3 separate
Java Tools start and are shown on the Dock. I took a screenshot of this
strange behaviour:

I hope someone can get me a hint...I'm quite new to the Mac. I need the
palette working!

Thanks,
Martin Müller

The pallet is minimized in your picture. Click the little triangle at the
top right corner of the design area. That should open up the pallet.
