Eric,
thanks a lot for your effort. As soon as it is available I will put it in the contacts demo. Best regards, Kai From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Eric Moffatt Sent: Freitag, 23. Oktober 2009 20:24 To: E4 Project developer mailing list Subject: Re: [e4-dev] Main ToolBar in Workbench Model Kai, just an update that this request has pushed the answer to the 'trim' issue. Since 50% of our 'simple' RCP apps (i.e. Contacts & e4Photo) need trim I'll be upgrading the model to have a basic Window element that allows trim. Nothing else should change except that MWindow should now also have four new MUIElement collections; top, bottom, left & right to service the trim. Once done you would model this by adding the 'topTrim' collection (same as we currently do to define the 'mainMenu'), then just add your MToolbar to it. Programmatically it'd look like this: window.getTopTrim().getChildren.add(myToolbar); Unfortunately I don't think it'll be available for ESE (I have to implement the SWT layout to manage the layouts....) but this is just a heads up that at least we have a definite plan on how to expose this now.

Part of the problem is an ongoing discussion about whether or not MWindow in its basic form should provide 'trim' services, providing for a defined place in which to host the Toolbars (as well as a status line, minimized stacks...). What can I say except that 'it's coming'; Paul is in the process of getting the E4 commands story in place and as part of the integration of that into the E4 UI will require that we provide a place for Toolbars (and I guarantee that you'll be able to add your own TB's in the XMI). I wish I had better news or a suggestion on how to do this except to place the TB directly into one of your views during creation (i.e. make a Composite containing your current part with a TB above it).

I did not find a solution for creating the main toolbar using the current workbench model yet. Any hints?
