[ Eclipse SDK, Version: 3.2.1 Build id: M20060921-0945 ] [ org.eclipse.ui.workbench_3.2.1.M20060906-0800.jar ] [ running on Windows XP with SP2 ] Eclipse can restore a saved layout of a perspective, but it gives no chance to control visibility of restored views before displaying the perspective in workbench window. Though it is possible to hide unintended views later, a flash of window or unneccessary operations for displaying it first sounds not good. It is common for an enterprise application to show one view or not according user's previlleges, validaty of data or workflow status. Ability to restore a cutomized perspective's layout is important, too. That's why I ask for this enhancement. I modified 2 internal classes and add an enhanced class(*) to achieve it: org.eclipse.ui.internal.WorkbenchPage org.eclipse.ui.internal.registry.PerspectiveRegistry * org.eclipse.ui.internal.FilterViewFactory Please check my proposed improvements( see Bug 169110, get patched fragment project on https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/attachment.cgi?id=56195&action=view).

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
