Description Mauro Molinari CLA 2014-08-08 05:43:56 EDT 
In Eclipse Luna I20140606-1215, the Eclipse Help still mentions the Fast View Toolbar and Fast View features as available, although somewhat superseded by the new "minimize on the stack" feature. 
However in this version of the UI I can't find the Fast View Toolbar at all and I can't find any view menu item to show a view as a fast view.
Also, if I turn "Open a new view" option to "As fast view" in Window | Preferences | General | Perspectives, new views still open within the perspective, i.e. that option seems to do nothing.

I suggest to remove all references to this feature both in the Eclipse Help and in the preferences if it's not available any more.

Sorry for the duplicate, I had searched in the Platform product but it seems like the original report was filed against the e4 product.
