eclipse java editor view - eclipse

I pressed right mouse button and accidentally selected SOMETHING which I cannot revert anymore. Now I have a small panel on top of my editor which shows a very detailed project layout (begins with project name and goes down till method declarations). I don't want that there. How do I remove it?
Please help! Thank you!
Edit: the panel seems to represent the type hierarchy of my project.

That is very simple.. 'Undo ' the breadcrumb option

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 !

Couple of ways to disable them.
Right click on the breadcrumb-> You will get Hide breadcrumb option ->Click on that to hide.
On the the action bar. There is a button called "Toggle breadcrumbs" which will disable it if it is enabled. Click on it to disable it.

Xterm right click misbehaviors

When I open linux eclipse IDE from windows using xterm(Reflection, MobaXterm), I found few problems:
When I right-click on a project, the menu appears for a millisecond, and disappears with a click action on about.
Sometimes the menu appears on right click, but if that menu has more items, usually it should scroll down/up, but the scroll button staying behind windows tast bar.
Can anyone help me on this?
Thanks in advance!
I have the same issue too. It seems that the right-click menu disapears behind the Eclipse main window and behind the Windows taskbar...
Here is the workaround I use currently: in MobaXterm 5.0, just go to "settings" --> "X11" and choose "Windowed mode with Fvwm": this will open an X11 window.
When you run Eclipse using this tip, it correctly displays the right-click menu.
I hope this helps!
I googled but didn't find a solution.
For the first one, you can right click and hold it, move the mouse to the target menu entry, then release it.
In this way you can avoid a wrong click.

How to Display Current Function in Eclipse

I miss a certain functionality in Eclipse. I would like to know the name of the current function the cursor is currently inside. This is useful when browsing unknown code using the search function, for example.
Any idea how to show it? Maybe a plugin?
I'm using the "Toggle Breadcrumb" option from toolbar:
It shows a nice breadcrumb, ending with current function name.
It's quite handy for me, as Outline becomes cumbersome to use if you have zilions of functions.
It produces the following structure above your Java Editor (truncated at the picture below):
The "Outline" view shows the current function.
It may be necessary to enable the 'Link to Editor' option in the Outline View dropdown menu. This might be off by default for CDT.
I was looking for something similar (Xcode-like bar at the top showing the current function, where you can also go to another function by clicking on it to open a popup list of functions). Here is what I settled on with Eclipse 3.5.1 CDT:
I moved the Outline view to the top, resized it to make it a 1-line horizontal strip (don't make it too narrow), and selected "Link With Editor" in its menu, so that it always shows the current function. However, this doesn't open a popup list like Xcode. For that functionality, I assigned a shortcut to the "Show Outline" command which does open a popup list of all functions.
The Eclipse function 'show outline' will pop up a list of outline objects, and it will highlight the object your cursor is inside in grey. It's typically bound to 'ctrl-o' (the letter 'o', not zero), but you can re-bind it as you see fit. I'm running Eclipse with the CDT plugin and it works pretty well for me.
To enable the breadcrumb invoke Toggle Java Editor Breadcrumb in the toolbar or press Alt+Shift+B in the Java editor.
You can also display the Quick Outline (ctrl+o). This way you see the context quickly without having to have a permanent Outline Window linked to the Editor.
Use the "Link With Editor" option on the outline menu
Press Ctrl+o (cursor is currently inside a function at a particular line).
It highlights the current method, or name of the class if the cursor is outside the method body.
You can click on highlighted method.
It has got inline search feature ...start typing name of the method to navigate to the specified method or method with matching search pattern.
If you press again Ctrl+o to shows the inherited members/methods.
Using outline with "link with editor" option worked also for me, thanks!
Just an addition, you can move outline pane in to the same window group as search, progress etc. saves the space in your perspective instead of keeping it at another group.
