Build id: 200403220800 Using the RCP browser example I was able to drag the view away from the RCP window to get a detached view. The perspective was declared as fixed, so this should not be possible. Also, I was not able to reattach the view by dragging it back to the window. The system menu -> move -> tab group is still enabled, which appears to be the same problem. The move -> view is disabled, and I wasn't able to move it by clicking on the active tab, just the tab area background.
This on is critical for LWP for M8. Either that or we need a global preference (no UI for it necessary) to disable detached views.
More strange behaviour that I think is related to this. In a fresh IDE I'm able to grab the empty editor area and drag it around. For most locations, the cursor is a "don't do it" circle but it does change to an arrow (and the empty editor area boundary changes size) when I get close to the edge of some view. I would expect dragging an empty editor area to have the same behaviour as trying to drag the status line (for example) -- i.e., nothing happens.
The editor area thing is unrelated to fixed views. I believe it has already been fixed.
Fixed in head
Note: a folder is considered fixed if it is in a fixed perspective. To prevent this from happening, you must be using a fixed perspective.
