Description Thomas Richter CLA 2005-03-17 03:46:34 EST 
Hi,
I need a button to unattach all views from window. I can unattach one
view with the mouse from the window. But I have no starting point
where to call a function.

Sorry, is this an API request or a UI enhancement request?

There is no API to do so. Log an enhancement request against Platform UI.

I want to do this:

for all v in views do
   v.deatach()
od

Reassigning bugs in component areas that are changing ownership.
Comment 4 Remy Suen CLA 2008-02-15 10:25:00 EST 
Would it make more sense to abstract this out further at the WorkbenchPart level instead of the ViewPart level?
Comment 5 Boris Bokowski CLA 2008-02-15 10:56:03 EST 
I think the request was to add API for programmatically detaching a view. Editors cannot be detached, at least not currently.

Remy is now responsible for watching the [ViewMgmt] category.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

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.
