Annotating Issue in Altium - altium-designer

I am a beginner with Altium Designer. Trying to complete a project and while annotating the schematic, there are some components that the software just won't update. Check the screenshot, in the proposed designator it shows the same C?.
screenshot of the error
Thanks for your help.

In the Proposed Changes list, the far left tick-box locks the current designators.
Untick all the "C?" items and then click Update Changes List to annotate these components.

How can I duplicate a non-editor panel in Eclipse?

I had exactly the same problem another user (arghtype) is having here in this question's thread: How to enable duplicate tabs in Eclipse? (i.e. duplicate windows)
Although, it is only an answer post that doesn't necessarily achieve what we both want.
It recommends opening a separate, duplicated window, which is a bit resource heavy for what I need.
I wanted to formally ask this question in case anyone has the appropriate answer instead of a work-around or compromise, or we can open a feature request in the Eclipse work item tracker, and this way the answer and any history can become more apparent for this specific issue.
Also note I have tried the Menu options "Window" > "Show View" > "Other...", and then have selected the view/panel I wanted, with the current one in my UI both selected and unselected in different cases, and I still do not receive a duplicate panel.
I would also appreciate sources such as links to any documentation, or at least a screen shot with an answer, since I am very carefully not asking about the editor panel in the UI, which is commonly found as an issue on the internet.
To add, my specific case is using RTC 5.0.2 with Eclipse 4.2.2 (Juno), and I would like
multiple "Work Items" panels open for my workflow. One for overall reference, one for current, immediate work, and any more for what have you.
Another related source I found that all seem to speak about the similar, more prevalent issue, specifically concerning only the editor tab/panel:
How do you split a window/view in Eclipse IDE?
Edit:
I have opened an Eclipse Bug/Enhancement request for the UI here: Bug 471001 - Allow user to create duplicate panels in perspective view.
We will see how it is handled. Either my version is too old to have this feature, or it does not exist, and could prospectively be added.

How i can create a toolbar for a specific perspective in rcp?

I am very new to rcp. In my plugin, I have three perspectives and In a perspective, I have 4-5 views, I want to create a toolbar specific to the slected perspective. I searched a lot for this but unable to find any answer, please help me in this.
One solution is to create an extension using org.eclipse.ui.actionSets that contains a set of actions you want to be displayed in the tool bar when a specific perspective is selected. Then there is a extension point called org.eclipse.ui.perspectiveExtensions where you can associated a action set ID (the one you created) with a persepctive ID and that action set is only shown when the perspective is active. In terms of "creating your own tool bar" that is in clear. There is always only one toolbar but based on the perspective/view selection items can be hidden or active.
This thread is dead and the answer posted is no more valid. so it doesn't help me. please refer the link below.
This question is correct, on which no one is responding, after last response. The Last repose which is not correct for the current eclipse development, as actionSets is a deprecated API now. Below link clearly mentions that this is deprecated.

I have same related question and created another thread, which addresses more than this question too. Hope that is helpful.

regarding gef selection

I am new to GEF. I would like to post some doubts here.
I have created a rectangle figure on the graphical editor. Now I am unable to select that
figure. In order to select a figure, do I need to use the edit policies and commands?
Also the delete,redo and undo actions can that all be used in a view without an editor?
Enabling selection is done using edit policies. Since you are new to GEF, you can check out my tutorial on the subject. You can also read more information from the sources I have found.
Good luck!

TFS 2010 change history on individual code sections

Some time ago I recall seeing an early release video demonstration of a tool that allowed one to (from within Visual Studio) inspect the history of a section of code.
For example, right click on a method and choose 'view history', and see when that method has changed.
Can anyone recall what product this may have been?
I don't recall that, but is Annotate something that helps you too. Annotate shows a copy of the source file and for each section who last modified it and when that happened.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb385979.aspx
What you're looking for is "method history" and we've just released it for Subversion and of course for Plastic SCM.
I think you meant SemanticMerge: http://www.semanticmerge.com/

How does Eclipse do code completion specific to third-party frameworks?

How does the Eclipse editor work to enable code completion? For example, within the XML editor for Hibernate property files, if I ctrl-space within a tag, a list of possible value relevant to hibernate will show up.
I understand that the XML editor is pre-configured to understand xml tag, but how about tag specific to a particular framework? How does Eclipse know about that?
I believe that the eclipse XML editor gets the content assist information from any referenced DTDs, or XMLSchema information it associates with the XML file. Try this experiment: Remove the DOCTYPE entry at the beginning of the file and see if content assist still works.
If you're interested in writing your own content assistants, you may want to start by reading the following:
http://help.eclipse.org/galileo/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse.platform.doc.isv/guide/editors_contentassist.htm
In a nutshell, like most things in Eclipse, this is a platform hook. When you press the button, it queries all the registered assistants (I'm simplifying here), and they provide suggestions based on the current element or even the current content.
When writing a source editor or viewer for a particular language or document type, it is common to provide at least some rudimentary content assistants.
Removed the DOCTYPE entry at the beginning of the file and im now able to see the commands while typing ctrl+space...
To add to Uri's answer, you can define your own editor for your own language with XText as long as you have a simple EBNF grammar language for your DSL (domain specific language).
You will have:
syntax coloring,
model navigation (F3, etc.),
code completion,
outline view, and
code templates.
Here is a solution you can work. Actually I was facing a same problem with struts.xml file. I was not able to produce tags by cntrl+space
what i did was...
go to Preferences...Java...Editor...Content Assist...Advanced
check all the check-boxes ON and press OK.
sometimes the problem persists due to some false alarming in eclipse. If it happens, just delete your xml file and create a new one in same location.
I hope it will help.
I had the same issue while using the struts.xml file.
I got fix when I tried below...
Go to “Preferences>Java>Editor>Content Assist>Advanced“. Make sure “Java Non Types Proposals” are ticked on both the places as shown in the image below then click Apply and OK button:-
