Hi

I have an application created in SWT, where I also use two CoolBars. They look fine in Windows XP, but those coolbars are not shown at all on Windows Vista and Windows 7. Does anyone know anything about this? Any solutions?
Thank you!

Alexandra.

Something similar was just asked, do you know Eunice?

Anyways, CoolBars definitely work in general on Vista and Windows 7. Does

work for you on these platforms?

You're right, I tested the Snippet and it worked on Vista.
My application contains two coolbars and a sash form. I'm using the SWT_AWT bridge, because I have to deploy it as an applet.
I wonder if this is a "compute size problem" or if it has something to do with the SWT_AWT bridge.
