Description Adam Kiezun CLA 2002-01-23 05:30:25 EST
in the package view ui, there's no indication of the currently active working 
set
Comment 1 Dani Megert CLA 2002-04-16 03:13:10 EDT
There is: the hover shows it. 

Now that working sets are per window I suggest that this is shown in the window
title and not in every single view.

Comment 2 Nick Edgar CLA 2002-04-16 09:14:32 EDT
Since the workbench working set is a replacement for window input, we should 
show the working set name in the window title.
Comment 3 Nick Edgar CLA 2002-04-16 09:15:12 EDT
Note that we currently also show it in the Navigator's view title as well.
This is good since not all views honour the window's working set.
Comment 4 Nick Edgar CLA 2002-04-16 09:26:20 EDT
There are currently some issues with how working sets interact with Go Into, 
Open in New Window, and the frame list.
For example:
- switch to Resource perspective
- create and select working set UI with org.eclipse.ui
- Navigator changes to show only org.eclipse.ui
- Navigator title indicates "UI"
- frame list is unaffected (back/up arrows still disabled)
- select Eclipse JFace and choose Go Into
- the view title does not change
- the frame list updates appropriately (Back and Up are enabled)
- click the Back button

- select Eclipse JFace and choose Open in New Window
- window title indicates "Eclipse JFace"
- Navigator title indicates "Eclipse JFace"
- frame list updates appropriately (Up is enabled)
- click Up twice
- it now shows the whole workspace

I guess the working set isn't getting propagated for Open in New Window.
Unclear whether it should be.
In any case, it's confusing to use the view title for both the working set and 
the current input.
Comment 5 Knut Radloff CLA 2002-05-08 10:48:21 EDT
Working sets are no longer set on the window but selected for individual views.
So the working set name shouldn't appear on the window title bar.
If we don't want to put the working set name in the view title we could add it 
to the title tool tip like the packages view does.
I do think that working sets should propagate to the new navigator on "Open in 
new window".
Comment 6 Knut Radloff CLA 2002-05-08 12:17:51 EDT
Resource navigator now displays the working set name in the tooltip, just like 
the packages view does. When a container is set as input for the current or a 
new page the working set name appears in the tooltip after the input name.
Working sets are now propagated to the resource navigator only if a new window 
has one. This does not apply to the packages view.
Open a new bug if we want to make this consistent (either propagate to packages 
view as well or never propagate working set).
Comment 7 Knut Radloff CLA 2002-05-09 10:07:18 EDT
Backed out navigator specific fix for propagating working sets.
Opened bug 15590 to address this in the future.
