How do I detach View windows in Eclipse Mars on openSuSE? - linux

First, the basic operation is described in the Eclipse Help here!
Unfortunately, it does not work as described there!
Does anybody get it to work?
Please keep in mind that it may behave differently on different platforms; I am running Eclipse Mars on openSuSE 13.1/KDE 4.11.5, and this may be of course the reason why it will not work at all ... :-(
It worked fine for all previous versions of Eclipse I installed on that machine before.

Just drag them out of the workbench window (also works for editors in Eclipse 4...;-). Now you can also make a detached window contain more than one stack with its own maximize support...

MyEclipse's accelerate keyszoom in(ctrl+-) and zoom out(ctrl+=) are invalid

I use myeclipse (version :myeclipse-2015-stable-3.0 or myeclipse-2016-ci-7) in windows 7, and I want to zoom in/out the fonts while editing by accelerate keys ctrl+ =/-,but they don't work.
I don't want to use the way that windows--preference--color and fonts--...to change fonts size because it isn't convenient,there is no accelerate keys confilcts also,and after changing accelerate keys,they still don't work.
Any ways to solve this problem?
Those commands don't seem to be defined in the General->Keys preferences page, for text editing, but even though they are defined in eclipse Mars (on which MyEclipse 2016 is based), they don't work there either. I can't find an eclipse bug for that, though there probably should be one.
However, I did find a solution, if you're willing to update to MyEclipse 2017 (the CI stream or the Stable stream), since the zoom function works fine there.

itcl tabnotebook missing tabs on Windows

I have a itcl/tk application that runs fine on Linux (and for the most part on Windows too). Have a frame where I packed an iwidgets::scrolledframe and within that an iwidgets::tabnotebook where two tabs were added.
Never have a problem on Linux, but on Windows (using Win7) often the 2nd tab is missing. Sometimes exiting and reinvoking the application on Windows and it will appear, but often it just never does. I have tried reorganizing code, inserted "update idletasks", to no avail.
Not sure if there are other tricks, or need to dig into itcl/tk installed code, or if could be a potentially a PC machine hardware issue.
Any ideas or suggestions of things to try will be graciously appreciated.
Turns out I appeared to resolve this via a strategically place update idletasks afterall. ;)

Android Studio freezes when right clicking the project explorer

I'm using Android Studio 1.5.1 on Kubuntu 15.10 and lately, Android Studio freezes completely whenever I right click into the project explorer. The only thing I can do then is to kill the process.
More oddly, whenever I hover the Help menu with the mouse, the complete OS freezes completely and I have to restart the computer. I am not 100% sure if these two issues are related, but they started at the same time.
Sometimes (about 10% of the time) it works well. I have no idea what influences this pattern, though. This used to happen earlier as well, but much less frequent.
The usage of different color schemes or deactivating plugins seem to have no influence on this behavior. I also did not install any fishy third party software or anything else that could (to my knowledge) have influenced this. Any ideas?
The issue seems to be resolved in the latest stable release (2.0).
I've recently run into this as well. Pointing jstack at the hung process suggests that it's this problem.
Switching to the Darcula or GTK+ theme resolved it for me. Weirdly, I can switch back to the Intellij theme afterwards and the problem stays fixed - I just have to switch to GTK+ or Darcula at some point after startup but before triggering a right-click menu.
Edit, 1 day later: In a deeply unimpressive plot twist, this solution no longer works for me. I've changed nothing since yesterday, but now attempting to switch themes triggers the lockup ಠ_ಠ
Edit, 1 day, 5 minutes later: After a restart the situation improved slightly - changing the theme now works again, and avoids the freeze-on-rightclick failure. I'm finding it difficult to take this as much of a victory.
Edit: As karpfen notes below, this issue has been resolved in the latest release. Huzzah!

In jVI for Netbeans, the cursor won't appear

Depending on the font I use, I might see a quarter of a cursor (lower right rectangle not flashing) in the wrong place, or no cursor at all. Still, the line I'm on highlights and the column number is displayed in the lower right.
I've tried a mix of fixed-width fonts at a mix of sizes (11-14), including the default Monospace, MacVim's Menlo, the awful Courier, and another q-a site's suggested Consolas.
Any ideas how to get the cursor to show up would be great. Alternate ways to get Vi keybindings in NetBeans also acceptable, though it seems jVi is the most current / active effort.
NetBeans 7.1.2
EDIT:
Image showing no cursor with highlighting
Image showing actually two partial cursors, which I'd never seen before:
There is a problem with the Mac Retina, which is like this problem. The latest jVi release has a workaround, you need to turn on the option
Tools > Options > jViConfig > Platform > MacRetinaCursorXorBug
I had the same problem in Netbeans 8.0.2. Workaround for this is to disable following option:
Tools->Options->jVi config->platform->use modal frame
I found the solution here which solves other problems with cursor too. I hope this will help you.
Cheers
ubuntu - 14.04
java 1.7.0_121
netbeans - 8.2
jvi - 1.5.4
i had the same issue and 'use model frame' was already enabled. Enabling 'MacRetinaCursorXorBug' fixed the issue. i have set the frequency of the cursor to 500 to be on the safer side.
Enabling the option MacRetinaCursorXorBug under Tools > Options > jViConfig > Platform was the only working solution for me among a bunch of other suggested workarounds. So it's important to mention that this setting could be required even on non Mac Systems.
(Tested on environment: Netbeans IDE 8.0.2, Ubuntu 15.04 with Kernel 3.19.0-16, XFCE-Desktop 4.12, VirtualBox 4.3.28)
Setting the blink rate to 500 as suggested by develucas fixed this for me on Ubuntu and Netbeans 8.1, though it still disappears whilst moving it reappears shortly after it becomes stationary, makes jvi useable again.

PyQt Release vs Debug

I have a system,written on PyQt4. It is mostly developed and debug under linux (ubuntu) systems, in Eric IDE, and everything works fine. Last task was to create a nested editor for a table cell. So, i did it and it also looks nice in ubuntu. I also ran it under Windows 7 x64, and the behavior was the same.
However, after making executable file with cx_Freeze in Windows 2000 (it's weird, but this environment was configured before me), the editors behavior became unexpected. After opening Editor it's first cell have 'role == Qt.EditRole', and it's almost impossible to commit any changes there without closing the whole Editor. Another issue is about "OK" button - it closes the Editor window, but doesn't commit any changes in it also, and you cannot call it again without changing the active cell (but maybe i just forgot to emit some signals here, so it's not the main bug here).
So my question - where should i look to find the reason for these problems. I'm new to qt, and maybe it is normal behavior and just my fault in code? Or the reason is in different environments (python 2.7, latest pyqt vs python 2.6 and some older pyqt). Or it is the influence of cx_Freeze... Maybe some other directions?
Sorry for long post and my English :)
Hope to get any answers soon.
I think there's a chance that Qt or PyQt on windows 2000 server is outdated or broken.
So If possible, bring cx_freeze related code to your local computer and test it out.
If it fixes the problem, you can upgrade or reinstall Qt on windows 2000 server.
