Re: [udig-devel] Reset perspective causes modal tools to disappear

[Jody Garnett <jody.garnett@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for the clear way to reproduce the problem; I run with the debugger showed the problem and the issue is now fixed.

See UDIG-1699.

Summary: setCurrentTool is called to update the widget state to show the correct icon; but when the toolbar is restored (rather then being created for the first time) the currentTool is already correct and the widget state is not updated. Changed the fill method to clear the currentTool before calling the setCurrentTool method.
