Description Peter Zavadsky 2005-05-18 22:37:50 UTC
Current implementation of multiview doesn't support multiple editors inside one
multiview component well. It provides only a 'good guess' when finding
appropriate editor, which works OK only for cases there is only one editor
between the multiple elements. See e.g. the impl of
MultiViewCloneableTopComponent#findPaneElement() method. It either takes the
active or first pane it finds between elements. It is not acceptable for the
cases when we are relying on openAt behaviour. There should be a way to give the
control to pick the correct element to the client.

See also issue #59046.
Comment 2 Milos Kleint 2005-05-19 11:09:03 UTC
reassigning, accepted. Having multiple documents in one multiview was not among
the original usecases.
Comment 3 Milos Kleint 2005-11-25 08:23:21 UTC
