Default Where is the Component Palette? - 01-08-2009, 01:30 AM

I've installed Eclipse 3.4 (I've been using Eclipse since 2.x), and I've upgraded to try the new JSF Visual Editor.

I have a JSF that I hand-coded (and it works in Tomcat). I am using standard my-faces JSF (including Tomahawk components).

When I open the JSF with the WebPage editor, I see the components in the middle pane, but the component palette is missing form the right-hand pane (I have an "Outline" instead).

I've added the my-faces impl jar to the Preferences->Web->JavaServer Faces Tools->Libraries.

When I view the Plug-Ins that are installed, I see GEF (Draw2d and GEF) and WTP (a whole bunch of plug-ins - EJB UI, JE22 UI, CA, Servlet UI, UI, and Webservice UI).

I added a jstl.jar (tag libs for JSPs) as per the instructions here:Help - Eclipse SDK

Still nothing.

Is the visual editor still under development? I have to say that the Eclipse documentation is terrible when trying to figure something like this out and Google hasn't provided insight.

Thanks.
