The simplest thing to do would be to just react to perspective events and show/hide your editors. 

So how do I get the list of hidden
editors that I want to re-show when a perspective is being re-shown?

You need to keep track of what you've shown/hidden yourself and what you want to show/hide the next time the perspective changes. This is up to the client to decide.

Thanks for your help. I'm a novice when it comes to Eclipse RCP development, so I was wondering if you could point me in the right direction. What is the recommended way for me to set it up so that I can react to perspective events? In other words, do I add a listener to something? If so, what type of listener, what would I be adding it to, and when would I add it? (i.e., during workbench initialization? workbench page initialization? what classes/methods represent those actions in the workbench lifecycle anyway?)

Also, is there a method I can call that will return all of the open editors, including hidden ones?

Thanks again for being patient with me!

Dave
