Hi,

I want to modify the horizontal scroll bar position of a Tree using:

tree.getHorizontalBar().setSelection(selection);

I get the horizontal scroll bar point to that position, but the corresponding scroll of the Tree is not done.

I have tried Tree.redraw(), but I don't get it done.

Thanks in advance,

Hi,

The Table/Tree does not respond to programmatic changes in its scrollbar.
To programmatically scroll a Tree you need to either:

- use a Tree API such as setTopItem(), showItem(), showSelection()
- or use a ScrolledComposite so that you're controlling the scrolling, for
an example of this see
