Description Eric Moffatt CLA 2010-05-04 16:18:55 EDT
I've made two changes to the UIElements.ecore model in order to do shared elements in perspectives

- Added a 'sharedElements' List<MUIElement> to MWindow

- Added a 'StackElement' from which both MPart & MPlaceholder derive.

It would be great if the editor could be updated to take this into account. I think that we need 3 things:

- A way to add any MPartSashContainerElement into the sharedElements list
- A way to add an MPlaceholder to a PartStack
- A special 'Find' button for the MPlaceholder that will set the 'ref' to some existing element in the 'sharedElements' list for the MWindow that the MPlaceholder is in.
