Single and Multi-tab Views

An editor can create different types of views. One example is a code editor window, another is a forms designer.

A multi-tabbed view is a view that has multiple tabs. For example, the HTML editor has two tabs at the bottom: Design and Source, each a logical view. The design view displays a rendered web page, while the other displays the HTML that comprises the web page.

Accessing Physical Views

Physical views host document view objects, each representing a view of data in the buffer, such as code or a form. Accordingly, each document view object has a physical view (identified by something known as a physical view string), and generally a single logical view.

In some cases, though, a physical view can have two or more logical views. Some examples are an editor that has a split window with side-by-side views, or a forms designer that has a GUI/design view and a code-behind-the-form view.

To enable your editor to access all of the available physical views, you must create a unique physical view string for each type of document view object that your editor factory can create. For example, the Visual Basic editor factory can create document view objects for a code window and a forms designer window.

Creating Multi-Tabbed Views

Though a document view object must be associated with a physical view through a unique physical view string, you can place multiple tabs within the physical view to enable the viewing of data in different ways. In this multi-tabbed configuration, all tabs are associated with the same physical view string, but each tab is given a different logical view GUID.

To create a multi-tabbed view for an editor, implement the IVsMultiViewDocumentView interface and then associate a different logical view GUID (LogicalViewID) with each tab you create.

The Visual Studio HTML editor is an example of an editor with a multi-tab view. It has Design and Source tabs. To enable this, a different logical view is associated with each tab, LOGICALVIEWID_TextView for the Design tab and LOGICALVIEWID_Code for the Source tab.

By specifying the appropriate logical view, a VSPackage can access the view that corresponds to a particular purpose, such as designing a form, editing code, or debugging code. However, one of the windows must be identified by the NULL string and this must correspond to the primary logical view (LOGVIEWID_Primary).

The following table lists the available logical view values and their use.

LOGVIEWID GUID

Recommended Use

LOGVIEWID_Primary

Default/primary view of the editor factory.

All editor factories must support this value. This view must use the NULL string as its physical view string. At least one logical view must be set to this value.

LOGVIEWID_Debugging

Debugging view. Typically, LOGVIEWID_Debugging maps to the same view as LOGVIEWID_Code.

LOGVIEWID_Code

View launched by the View Code command.

LOGVIEWID_Designer

View launched by the View Form command.

LOGVIEWID_TextView

Text editor view. This is the view that returns IVsCodeWindow, from which you can access IVsTextView.

LOGVIEWID_UserChooseView

Prompts the user to choose which view to use.

LOGVIEWID_ProjectSpecificEditor

Passed by the Open With dialog box to

OpenItem

when the user chooses the "(Project default editor)" entry.

Although logical view GUIDs are extensible, you can use only the logical view GUIDs defined in your VSPackage.

On shutdown, Visual Studio retains the GUID of the editor factory and the physical view strings associated with the document window so that it can be used to re-open document windows when the solution is re-opened. Only windows that are open when a solution is closed are persisted in the solution (.suo) file. These values correspond to the VSFPROPID_guidEditorType and VSFPROPID_pszPhysicalView values passed in the propid parameter in the GetProperty method.

Example

This snippet illustrates how the TextView object is used to access a view that implements IVsCodeWindow. In this case, the SVsUIShellOpenDocument service is used to call OpenDocumentViaProject and request LOGVIEWID_TextView, which obtains a pointer to a window frame. A pointer to the document view object is obtained by calling GetProperty and specifying a value of VSFPROPID_DocView. From the document view object, QueryInterface is called for IVsCodeWindow. The expectation in this case is that a text editor is returned, and so the document view object returned in the GetProperty method is a code window.
