Re: [platform-ui-dev] Welcome Page - can I influence which sectionto show?

Hi Brian,

Thank you for the pointers!

I was about successfully define the start page, though, I wasn't successful with the home page - clicking the Home button always takes it to the "general" view (root pages). I can live with that for now. Getting the start page right was critical.

Hi Pradeep.

Your product can by providing a plugin_customization.ini and specifying:
    • INTRO_START_PAGE: the first page shown
    • INTRO_HOME_PAGE: page for the home button
    • INTRO_ROOT_PAGES (universal intro only): the navigable pages shown on page lists

E.g.,:
      # Root page links to show in the Universal Welcome
      org.eclipse.ui.intro.universal/INTRO_ROOT_PAGES = overview,tutorials,samples,whatsnew
      org.eclipse.ui.intro/INTRO_START_PAGE = root
      org.eclipse.ui.intro/INTRO_HOME_PAGE = root

Brian.

      In the Welcome page, there are a few top-level sections - Overview, What's New, Samples, Tutorials.

      During startup (for the first time), can I influence which section to show?

      I know after installing newer capabilities, the Overview section shows up. But when running a product unzipped from an EPP build it shows the "Main" page which lists all the four sections and leave it to the user to choose. I would rather have it go directly to the Overview section. Is there a way?
