| Re: [platform-ui-dev] SelectionAggregator and initial selection behavior |

Spending two thoughts on this I can’t see where the benefits are. Most actions, handler and stuff react on the active part.
Thinking of copy and paste I’d expect to copy the elements I actively selected and not to copy those that got set by a part activation. Maybe you have a good example where this is beneficial ? Jens From: platform-ui-dev-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:platform-ui-dev-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxx]

Hi
I’m wondering about the selection behavior of eclipse (referring to E4) when you switch active parts.
My understanding is that if you actively select an item I’d expect it to be selected but if I simply change views I’d expect the selection to remain stable We expect the selection (at the window level) to reflect the selection of the currently active part. So if you switch to a new part, the selection is updated. This was designed this way deliberately.
