Bug 7557 Properties page unresponsive after reopening
Reported: 2002-01-14 13:34:23 | Status: resolved fixed

Build: 20020109 After making the Properties view a fast view and then closing it, the view does not respond to mouse clicks when reopened. View remains unresponsive until Eclipse is restarted. Tested in both Java and Resource perspectives. 1. Launch a fresh Eclipse session. 2. Open a Properties view through Perspective->Show View->Properties, restore the view if it appears as a fast view. 3. Drag the view to the shortcut bar to make it a fast view. 4. Click the icon in the shortcut bar to pop up the properties view. 5. Close the view. 6. Re-open the Properties view through Perspective->Show View->Properties 7. The view appears as a regular view, but does not respond to mouse movement or clicks. All other views work normally. If Eclipse is closed and restarted the Properties view shows up in the same location and now works normally.
