Sigh…did that work for you, Dave? I still have a big gray box with no contents…here’s my xml file if you want to have a look…

 

Thanks,

 

Jenny

Yeah, I think that's equivalent. Just has to be in there somewhere.

Hi Dave,
 
OK, I’m good with your instructions all the way down to the last line. My xml file doesn’t seem to have a <fastViewBars/> line? It’s got a <fastViewData line…
 
Thanks for your help. Almost there!
 
Jenny

OK, I threw you a red herring (actually a double red herring). I should have double checked, sorry.

First of all its not C:\Aperi\workspace\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.ui.workbench\workbench.xml unless you started the rcpgui from the C:\Aper directory. The workspace directory gets created in what ever directory you are standing in when you launch the GUI. So its: <directory from which you launched the GUI>\workspace\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.ui.workbench\workbench.xml

Second of all its not the editor we want visible in the perspective, its a view (we don't have an editor defined for that perspective so changing editorAreaVisible won't do anything).
So, you have two choices.
The easy and fast way to work around it is to delete the entire workspace directory or just CD to a different directory to launch the GUI from:
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator>cd C:\Temp
C:\temp>\Aperi\rcpgui\AperiRcpGui
Or you can edit the workbench.xml to put the view back in the perspective:
Replace <views/> with:
<views>
<view id="org.eclipse.aperi.rcp.gui.views.classicview" partName="Classic View">
<viewState/>
</view>
</views>
and insert <view id="org.eclipse.aperi.rcp.gui.views.classicview"/> before the line <fastViewBars/>

Still a good defect...

In my file, I don’t have the “editorAreaTrimState” line at all, it just starts with the editorAreaVisible line, which is already set to 1.
 
Should I add the AreaTrimState line to it?

No, this is a different bug. I reproduced it. The work around is a little weird so stay with me...
Exit the GUI.
edit the file C:\Aperi\workspace\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.ui.workbench\workbench.xml
find the line that looks like this
<perspective editorAreaTrimState="2" editorAreaVisible="0" fixed="0" version="0.016">
and change editorAreaVisible="0" to editorAreaVisible="1"
it should look like this when you are done (though the version number might be different).
<perspective editorAreaTrimState="2" editorAreaVisible="1" fixed="0" version="0.016">
save the file
restart the GUI

Good catch. Not dumb at all!

I think this is a known issue being tracked by bug 198117. Try clicking around on the left panel until it appears, then do the same with the right panel.

Nope. Still staring at a big gray box.
