Views can be extracted from the Eclipse RCP application into their own floating window. This floating window can have several views stacked on top of each other. However, as far as I can tell, it cannot simultaneously display multiple views in a layout, such as the main RCP application window.
I worked on this by creating a new “window” (see the Eclipse RCP application - create the window programmatically ). However, this has several disadvantages:
- The new window has a menu bar that I really don't want.
- It allows two copies of the view, marked as not allowing duplicates (one for each window).
- Views cannot be dragged between two windows.
My question is: is there a way to customize the behavior of floating views created by Eclipse RCP when you pull the view into its own window so that other views can be docked along it?
