[news.eclipse.tools.ve] Re: Changing Preview L&F

["Joel Kamentz" <Joel.Kamentz@xxxxxxx>]

D'Oh!  I even looked at that page.

How soon are changes supposed to take effect?  (Apply, for example, 
certainly isn't live.)

Perhaps due to the NPE at 
org.eclipse.ve.internal.cde.core.EditDomain.setPaletteViewer(EditDomain.java:79) 
which I regularly get, I sometimes need to close and re-open the visual 
class twice before it picks up a new L&F setting.

A little further testing....  It seems that if the VE is open when I make 
the preference change, then closing and re-opening the visual class picks up 
the change.  If the VE is closed when I change the L&F, then I need to open 
the visual class, close it and then re-open it to get the new L&F setting.
