How can I remove the logcat window from the Java perspective permanently? Every time I get an error (that I'm expecting) it pops up the logcat window (even if i close it/remove it from the perspective) and shows the output. I only want this showing in the debug perspective. It's very annoying and makes iterative testing difficult when trying to fix known issues. I really don't need eclipse changing my focus to an error I've already seen a few dozen times.
I've tried going to "customize perspective" but I can only see options to add it, and even though it's not checked (and presumably not added) it still pops up.

Turn it off in Window -> Preferences -> Android -> Logcat -> Display logcat view when there are messages from an application in the workspace.

You can prevent Eclipse from automatically opening views like that based on which perspective you're in via your preferences, check the settings seen in the image below:
