Fabio Mancinelli commented on XECLIPSE-38:
------------------------------------------

I personally like the fact that each page has a logical associated preview that belongs to the same window where the page is being edit, and I personally don't like to switch between tabs to look at the preview. That's why I redesigned the UI in that way.

I agree that the user should be able to minimize the preview area in order to focus on text.

There are two ways of doing so:

1) Drag the separator line to resize the editor/preview area
2) Click on the top-right icon to maximize/restore the editor are (I have just added this feature)

However I am not against the old solution of having tabs, but I find this new layout more comfortable.
WDYT?

> Currently, each editor consists of a text edition zone and a browser view below it. I would find it more handy to have the browser view in a top level editor/view, similaringly to the Jira-Eclipse browser view, for those reasons:
> * sometimes you just don't care of the browser view, then it takes space for nothing
> * that can be useful to keep contextually several browser views open that are not synchronized with the currently edited page.
> Having an option for making the browser view available as a tab grouped with the text editor as in the first version of XEclipse may be handy as well. What do you think? (I'malso entering some issues for playing a bit with JIRA-Eclipse here :-)
