When creating an RCP application using Eclipse Juno (e4 platform), view parts do not provide the minimize/maximize toolbar actions.
What is also missing is the double-click action on the view part header which would minimize and maximize the view accordingly.
I also noticed, that the header bar of a view part is slighly lower than it was in previous releases, such that an action button doesn’t really fit in it (drawn over the border of the header – see image).
I just created the example RCP app providing a simple intro page.

It seems to me like a bug on e4 or am I doing something wrong?
I faced the same issues. I followed the options on this link for migrating from 3.x to 4.x and it worked for me.

Basically added the following as dependency to my plugin and run configuration.
