Description Jed Anderson CLA 2005-03-21 18:26:04 EST
I would like to contribute a view to a perspective and then mark it as minimized.  

I'm thinking something like:

IPageLayout layout = ...
layout.addView(IPageLayout.ID_TASK_LIST, IPageLayout.BOTTOM, 0.66f, editorArea);
layout.setMinimized(IPageLayout.ID_TASK_LIST);
Comment 1 Jed Anderson CLA 2005-03-21 19:04:28 EST
Or another method would be through the IViewLayout interface.

Reassigning bugs in component areas that are changing ownership.
Comment 3 Paul Webster CLA 2006-09-28 11:00:52 EDT
There are currently no plans to work on this feature.
