Hi Mathias,

Yea it was intentional.  My reasoning is this:

- In most applications, users dont need or want to maximize views. Eclipse 
is a much more complicated and feature-ful application compared to normal 
RCP apps.
- If users don't really need it, its best removed to avoid the added 
complexity to the UI.
- I haven't seen many typical end-user applications that provide a similar 
feature.

If you do modify the code to add this feature - as long as its a high 
quality patch and you make it preference based - I will commit the patch. 
But make sure you use preferences for it.  The eclipse.ini is for core 
runtime options.  This would be a plugin preference.

Regards,
-Chris

RE: [nebula-dev] New Nebula Presentation Component...






Hi,
I do presume that it was intentionally that there is no way to maximize 
view this is disturbing for RCP users.
But it could be nice to configure this behaviour and perhaps other by 
settings preference in the eclipse.ini file.
I?am going to investigate this and provide a patch if you are interested 
by such modification.
 
Anyway thanks for cvs location, I miss the Project combo in the viewcvs 
page.
 
Regards,
Mathias

The presentation was made with very specific features in mind.  There is 
no way to maximize a view.  You can only maximize the editor area.  You 
also cannot minimize either.  This was a deliberate decision. 

The source is available in CVS.  There is a project in the nebula module 
for it.  The Nebula project is under the Technology project.

Is there any way to tweak PShelf behaviour ? (.ini file or preference 
panel) I would like to restore the double click (maximize view) behaviour. 
I really miss this feature for an eclipse use of this presentation.
 
Thanks
Mathias Muller
