Ha! God doesn't use stackoverflow like the rest of us?  

Let's see if we can help you. Ok so when you say 3 MultiViewElement, you are referring to a multi view which provides source/visual/history a la the standard tutorials, but each of your views provides an alternative Visual tab?

Are you defining this TopComponent class yourself?  Do you not have scope to it?  Is the TopComponent defined in a different module?

You could create a TopComponent class and either extend it for each DataObject type, or maybe have a static block that does the initiatlization.
Or...
Make a base MultiViewElement class, centralize the initialization code there and extend that instead.  That might be cleaner.
