How to hide one unknown menu in VS Code? - visual-studio-code

There is one weird menu which i need to get rid of. Even when I split vscode environment into more pages (two,three...) it creates this menu for every page area. I have not even find what is the name of this menu, much less how to hide it. Please, does anyone at least know what is the name of this menu?

Those are source control buttons, try to uncheck some of these.

How to hide or dock result grid panel/toolbar in MySQL Workbench 6.3?

I am seeing the following panel in the result grid.
Based on the research I've done, for many people this panel is docked. However, in my application it's hidden then displayed upon hovering in that area. This has become very annoying because it's hard to use the scrollbar there.
I've looked all over in the preferences and toolbars but can't find a way to disable it.
Does anyone know how I can get rid of it altogether or make it static?
You probably activated the "hidden" mode. Klick on the small icon right beside the bar:

Adding a view to a folder in perspective - runtime

I want to achieve something during run time.
I have a customized editor plugin. Now, what I want is whenever someone opens this editor, there should be a view displayed in bottom folder no matter what the current perspective is.
What I meant from above is, say currently "Java" perspective is shown on active page , so whenever someone opens my custom editor, I want to add a view in bottom folder(where we see "Problems" tab). Similarly, for any current perspective, my view should get rendered as soon as my custom editor is opened.
I know about initial layout and adding a place holder view, but I can not add place holder to each and every perspective. I want this to work for any perspective opened.
Can someone please suggest workaround for this ?
Thanks in Advance !

Adding New Components in WindowBuilder Design View

At risk of this being a trivial question, I need to know how to add more components (in the components explorer) in WindowBuilder for Eclipse Juno. I'm taking a dive and trying learn how to add a GUI to one of my personal projects. Right now all I have mustered up is just a JFrame that has a button that launches my program in the console with a little notification saying so. But what I am thinking about having is a "Start up Window" with just some stuff and button or something that says Enter application or something. So then I want a new window to pop up as a "Run Window". I have created a new JFrame as a "run window" and hide/set visibility of "startWindow" to false and get the result I want. But I want to be able to edit this new JFrame in the design window along with the default JFrame I started with.
Is there a way to do this? I tried right-clicking in the components window in the design view and it doesn't do anything. I also tried right-click the object from the project explorer and couldn't find anything. Am I missing something? Is this even possible?
The question seems to have 2 parts, so I will try to answer both of them.
1) Adding components directly in the components explorer
The only thing you could do, to get new components into there via right-click is "Surround with". For example you have a JPanel, right-click on it and click "Surround with...". You could try and put a JScrollPanel in there, so you can scroll your JPanel.
But the usual way to add components is by the "Palette", it contains a lot of components, that you can drag&drop into either the components-explorer or directly into your app Window -> Show View -> Palette.
2) Showing a certain window
If I understand this correctly, you want to show one window, click on a button and then show another window which has the same size etc. like the one before.
Setting the visibility for the first window to false and the second does work.
But under certain circumstances it's easier to use CardLayout.
Imagine a stack of cards, you can see only the first card. Then you click a button and now see the second card and so on.
See this: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/layout/card.html
for information and examples.

Is there a way to set "waypoints" in an Eclipse file? Meaning

I'm working in a file that's thousands of lines of code. I'm implementing an algorithm at line 700-ish. I frequently have to navigate away from those lines to check out the other methods in the file.
Navigating back to where I'm actually coding is usually a pain. If I could set a waypoint at line 700 and map a shortcut to it that would be great. It would also be nice to be able to do this on a file level too.
Is there any way to do this in Eclipse? If not, should there be?
I don't control the file so I can't break it up into smaller files/classes.
There's a Bookmark view in Eclipse that would probably work for this.
On any line of source (at least in the Java view), right click in the left hand tray. You'll see a menu pop up and an option called Bookmark. Select that and provide some kind of useful description that you'll remember.
Now, add the Bookmarks view to your perspective.
Click on Window
Select Show View
Select Other (at the bottom)
Select Bookmarks under General (or just enter Bookmarks in the search box).
You should now have the Bookmarks view in your perspective listing your bookmarks. Duble click on one of the bookmarks and it will take you right to it.
Hope that helps.

Is it possible to dock the "Find/Replace" window in Eclipse?

I could have sworn I saw it once before in a screencast where someone had the find/replace window docked in their Eclipse environment.
However looking through the list of options in "Window > Show" the closest thing I can find is the Search window.
I find that I use it quite a bit and with larger monitors these days I figure I could afford to have it open in my perspective all the time.
Is this possible?
Thanks.
One poor-man's workaround is to dock a view that you don't need in a part of Eclipse where you want the find/replace view and then place the find/replace dialog on top of that like this:
Clearly this is a huge kludge but it does work.
I am not sure about that, since Fast views are:
icons allowing users to quickly display different views that have been created as fast views
And the search/replace is a Dialog, not a View..
(source: bpsite.net)
(That Dialog box is not like Views, which support editors, also have their own menus. Some views also have their own toolbars.)
The help page mentions:
Fast views are hidden views that can be quickly opened and closed. They work like other views except they do not take up space in your Workbench window.
This might not be an exact answer for the question. But this works like a charm.
Press ctrl + j and keep typing...
Use ctrl + k to go on
Use shift key wherever required.
Use Edit > Incremental Find Next (Ctrl+J) or Edit > Incremental Find Previous (Ctrl+Shift+J) to enter the incremental find mode, and start typing the string to match. Matches are found incrementally as you type. The search string is shown in the status line. Press Ctrl+J or Ctrl+Shift+J to go to the next or previous match. Press Enter or Esc to exit incremental find mode.
