Eclipse Transition Perspective

Question

The small perspective switching panel disappeared from the upper right corner of my Eclipse window after Eclipse crashed. I downloaded the latest version and tried to open it (with the same workspace), but the buttons still disappeared.

Here is a screenshot:

And increased:

Any ideas?

I can still switch perspectives by choosing Window - Open Perspective

thanks

Answer 1

This is not just a missing upcoming switch, it is looking at me; no tools, ethers.

You can check Window..Preferences..General..Appearance and play with the Perspective Switcher control, see if this has changed.

You can also use Window..Customize Perspective and see what's interesting there.

Answer 2

Try Window> Reset Perspective ...

Answer 3

Another possibility is to remove workbench.xml from [workspace]\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.ui.workbench , which forces the platform to reset the workplace layout.
