Description David Simonek 2005-03-04 11:38:03 UTC

For some top components which have frequently
changing and/or long title, it is desirable to
have shorter, non changing title for top component
in sliding state.
known examples at this time are Navigator and
Property Sheet windows.

Note that issues 52811 and 53776 were just workarounded using private property
API. Real API is still needed.

Comment 2 David Simonek 2005-05-09 16:17:28 UTC

Passing to Milos, to have something easy and fast to implement :-)

Comment 3 Milos Kleint 2005-05-10 10:39:30 UTC

how about TopComponent.getStaticDisplayName() or getShortDisplayName()?

Comment 4 Milos Kleint 2006-07-27 07:40:18 UTC

reassigning to dsimonek

Comment 5 Maros Sandor 2007-05-28 16:12:35 UTC

This would also be used by the "Versioning Output" TopComponent.
