Hi, any one know how to change the background colors for a table cell?
Ex: if a table is full selected (SWT.FULL_SELECTION) and have three
columns, if I selected one row, how do I change the column1 to green,
column 2 to red...
BTW: if only call TableItem.setBackground(col, color), it will not working
due to the background color will overriden by the default selected
background color.

There is currently no way to change the selection color (for a row or a
single cell).

You could try using TableCursor for selecting individual cells.

See:

Thanks for your replay. Actually I try it before, TableCursor only can
change the background color for itself, so as long as we cannot change the
selection color, it will not work.
