Hi,

I know we can tile the editor working area manually by using drag and
drop.But is it possible to set the tile as the default layout of the editor
area programmatically, so that whenever two editors are opened in the
editor area,we will be able to see the two editors in tiled layout.

Hi Simon,

Hi Simon,
I think today is my unlucky day. I got two negative responses from you. I
wonder why the eclipse doesn't provide API for programmatically setting the
layout of the editor that would change the default stacked layout to tiled
layout because I feel this as restriction imposed on the developers. I also
feel the functionality is really needed because we cannot force the end user
or assume the end user will be knowing how to set the editor layout
manually. They should be able to get the desired layout by click of a
button. Need your comments and suggestions

The same reason(s) you give a client of your application when the client ask
"how come you did not include feature ABC?". There are many things included
in eclipse, and many more missing too. Its a question of time, priority,
complexity, value, etc.

You can open an enhancement bug report against Platform - UI for it to be
considered. Or maybe your company is willing to commit a number of
developers to add this feature in and have it included in Eclipse. If so,
please post a message in the platform-ui-dev mailing list.
