Every time I launch Eclipse I drag the toolbars to the order I want them. It never saves this. How do I permanently reorder my toolbar?
I am currently working with e4 application where I want to hide some toolbar buttons when the application is in certain perspective. In eclipse 3.x, I used to do it by perspective property tester using extension. But in e4, is there any way to do the same?
This should hopefully be a very easy question.
Within Netbeans, using the GUI Swing editor I have four panels within a JTabbedPane.
Tab #4 I want to sit where Tab #1 is now, but I created it last so by default its at the end of the list.
How to I move it in the GUI in Netbeans?
Google has not been my friend on this one. I keep coming up with questions about tab order, (e.g. Tabbing through forms), rather than what I actually want.
Right Click on the JTabbedPane->Change Order->You will get option to Move Up and Move Down which will change the order of tabs.
Select your JFrame or JPanel or etc and then jTextField or jButton or etc of the selected JFrame and go to properties of the JField or JButton and enable the "focusCycleRoot" (this JField or JButton will be selected first in the jFrame or JPanel ) then select the "change order" of the JFrame or JPanel in the Navigator window and "Move up" or "Move down" to change the order.!
I couldn't figure out how to do it in the GUI, but I hacked the .form file while Netbeans was closed and was able to move it. As a result, that works for me.
Open the Navigator tab in the Netbeans IDE (Window > Navigator). You can expand the JTabbedPane node to show a list of the JPanels representing its tabs. Simply drag one JPanel node to another position in the list and the tabs will be re-ordered in the JTabbedPane design.
Im using WindowBuilder tool to build a GUI for my application and I see that some widgets or tools don't get included in the Design view. In my case, I have created a new SWT Application window and I try to add DropDown Menu in the Application window and I always get a red icon when I take the DropDown menu from the palette to the design area. Can anyone tell me what is the problem in this case?
I found the mistake I was doing...It is not possible to directly add a DropDown Menu in the design editor. You first have to add a Menu and then add a DropDown Menu. And the widgets do work in all forms of applications you want to develop.
I accidentally removed the "Create new Class" button in eclipse. How would I get it back onto the top toolbar? I've looked through all the menus and I cant find an option to do it.
Thanks
Just right-click on your perspective (top right corner default) and choose Customize.
There you can select and deselect toolbar icons.
Java Element Creation -> New Java Project/Package/Class

In eclipse 4.4, choose Window->Customize perspective. First tab (Tool Bar Visibility) allows to customize toolbar buttons.
