Is it possible to add placeholders in the editor folder stack?

I can currently move my views (drag-n-drop) next to an editor, but I want them to be opened directly there.

If you are using eclipse 3.x, it is not possible. With 4.x should be possible (since Eclipse 4 no longer has an editor area, which must be defined for a perspective, so that you can also put editors in a ViewStack.). You may find something useful in Vogella's article.

  • It's a 3.x app on top of Kepler. I don't use e4xmi Application Models. Is there a workaround for this? – Georgian Jan 27 '14 at 14:32
  • Changing Eclipse presentation layer. However, you need a lot of effort to do so. To start with something, please refer to this short article http://wiki.eclipse.org/RCP_Custom_Look_and_Feel – Alex K. Jan 27 '14 at 14:41

    Lots of deprecated stuff there. I'll just go with an e4 hybrid. – Georgian Jan 29 '14 at 10:49
  • @GGrec do you have an answer to your question? if so can you post it? – janh Apr 13 '14 at 09:01
  • @janh This is not possible with 3.x applications. You'll have to take up on e4. – Georgian May 02 '14 at 12:07
