Description Boris Bokowski CLA 2005-09-26 15:35:53 EDT
[M20050923-1430]

When you open a non-closeable, non-moveable view, it cannot be dragged around. A
good example is StickyViewRight2 from the UI test plug-in.  However, you can
right-click on the fast view bar and by selecting New Fast
View->Other->StickyViewRight2 (for example), you can turn the view into a fast
view. I have found no way to get the normal view back, this view is now a fast
view forever. (Or until you reset the perspective.)

Either it should not be possible to turn the view into a fast view in the first
place, or it should be possible to turn the fast view into a normal view again.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
