[news.eclipse.platform.rcp] Re: Attach view

["Carsten Spieker" <carsten.spieker@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Well, maybe I did not explain my problem in detail.

I set "setSaveAndRestore" to "false". The scenario is that I have a 
completely clean runtime workspace. When I open my perspective it is 
correctly built up with the code from "createInitialLayout". Then I detach a 
view which is e.g. in a folder below the editor area. If I close or 
re-attach the view it is NOT put to the folder below the editor area (where 
it came from) but to a folder on the right side of the editor area.
Now I am searching for the reason for this behaviour and hopefully for a way 
to force the application to re-attach it to its "home" folder.

I apologize if I did not explain this in this detail before. Maybe the 
problem would have been clearer.

Greetz,
Carsten
