["Christian W. Damus" <cdamus@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi, JÃrgen,

To open the OCL console in any context, you can drop down the "New Console"
menu in the Console View's action bar and select "Interactive OCL".

AFAIK, the Console view does not allow a console to be dragged out of it. 
However, with some work, you may be able to implement your own view using
the OCLConsolePage  ;-)

Cheers,

Christian
