[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-11440?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugi... ] Viacheslav Kabanovich commented on JBIDE-11440: ----------------------------------------------- JBoss Central is implemented as an editor part rather than as a view. In this capacity, it cannot be associated with JBoss Perspective, or any other perspective, it is made a feature of the workbench itself. For example, if you check 'Show on startup', close JBoss Central, select some perspective, e.g. Resource, and restart Eclipse, you will have Resource perspective with JBoss Central showed. Getting Started Guide does not mention this singular behavior, and instead lists JBoss Central along with views, which is not correct. JBoss Central is similar to Welcome view, however the last one is consistently implemented as a view part. I think it would be better for JBoss Central to follow the same pattern. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.

Consider a use case: 1. JBoss Perspective is active, and JBoss Central is open. 2. Close JBoss Central. 3. Switch to a Resource perspective. 4. Switch back to JBoss perspective. - Now, with the last fix, JBoss Central is open again, though it was removed from JBoss perspective. And it takes time (3-5 sec) to get opened. 5. Open some file in an editor. - New editor gets the selection. 6. Switch to a Resource perspective. - The file editor is selected. That is ok. 7. Switch back to JBoss perspective. - JBoss Central is selected. That is surely a new bug. I think that if there are advantages for JBoss Central to be designed as an editor, let it be that way, even though it cannot perform as a standard view; but then it should be a 'modest' editor that does not grab the selection once and again. was (Author: scabanovich): Startup and perspective activation are not the same.

[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-11440?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugi... ] Snjezana Peco commented on JBIDE-11440: --------------------------------------- {quote} I know that my original request was to open it on perspective load, but now I believe it would make more sense to leave it as it was and change the documentation so that it doesn't state Central is included in JBoss Perspective. {quote} I agree. Editors are common to all perspectives in Eclipse and it is not common that an editor is opened when switching between perspectives. {quote} Another option would be to change "Show on Startup" to something which makes it obvious that it is also relevant to perspective change. {quote} Don't understand what you mean by this. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.

[ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/TOOLSDOC-275?page=com.atlassian.jira.plug... ] Max Rydahl Andersen commented on TOOLSDOC-275: ---------------------------------------------- moved this issue to toolsdoc since not relevant to code since yes, editors should not be opened/closed based on Perspective change. JBoss Perspective cannot contain JBoss Central, the requirement for making it easily accessible is instead done by: A) opening the editor by default on startup (unless user explicitly asked not to) B) have the jboss central quick access tool button. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
