[vwnc] Definition tab in 7.6

[Andres Fortier-2]

Hi list,
           I'm just trying out VW 7.6 and found out that the
definition tab only appears when there is a class selected. Is it
possible to go back to the old fashion browser when the tab was always
there, showing the template for a class definition when none was selected?

Thanks!
Andrés

Look at the DefinitionTool, you can modify the isActive method to get  
a behavior like that.

We have problems when selecting top classes in large class
hierarchies: If the selected class has no comment, VisualWorks will
halt for many seconds generating a default (unusable) class comment.
The method Refactory.Browser.BrowserCommentTool>>defaultComment is the
method starting all this nonsense.

Cincom should provide an option for which tab is selected by default.
Alternatively, the old behavior should be used instead.

Thanks Travis, I thought there may be a configuration checkbox or
something like that I was missing.

Thanks again.
