Description Anthony CLA 2007-06-05 13:08:48 EDT 
Is there a way to disallow the drag/drop of the perspective bar items such that it will not let a user create a new workbench instance?  If not, can we add that API to the platform?

USE CASE:

I have an RCP application that is simply a collection of views, each of which has stateful data and only needs to exist once.  I've marked the views as "allowMultiple=false", but I guess that is within a single workbench instance?  workbench window instance?

Or is there a better way for me to go about all of this?  Thank you very much for any help!

Within one workbench window I believe.  Your API request makes sense, but will have to wait until after 3.3 ships.

Prakash is now responsible for watching bugs in the [RCP] component area.

The PresentationAPI has been deprecated with the Eclipse 4.x release and it has been replaced with the CSS engine. I therefore close this bugs as WONTFIX. In case your bug report is still valid for the Eclipse 4.4 release, please open a new bug report for it.
