| Composite's Scrollbar issue [message #537960] |

Hi,
I have a composite (with SWT.H_Scroll and SWT.V_Scroll specifications when it's initialized) and have added some controls like Label and text on top of this. Am using GridLayout for this composite and have specified the grabExcessHorizontal and vertical as TRUE and also vertical and horizontalAlignment's as GridData.Fill.
But the problem is, when the screen is drawn, the scrollbars are showing by default even though its fully focus. And the other major issues is, when the workbench is resized( basically when it's minimized) these controls are going out of focus and even though the scrollbars are visible (and also selectable)...these are not functioning.
when i use the scrollbars to move....only the position of the scrolbar is moved and the composite's hidden area are is still not visible.
Can anyone suggest me anything on this issue?
The hierarchy of this composite on which its drawn is like this MyComposite -> CTabItem -> CTabFolder -> Section -> ManagedForm -> ScrolledForm -> Composite.
For all of these the layouts used is GridLayout with the similar GridData specifications as mentioned above for MyComposite....
Any suggestions at the earliest is much appreciated....
Thanks

Grant,
Thanks for the reply...i did even tried with ScrolledComposite before posting here...even that too didn''t work as expected.
Am pasting a sample code which you can run for yourself and check that the scrollbars eventhough it's visible and selectable still it doesn't do it's intended functionality.
This code is similar to the UI code of our project...please run this sample code and let me know..whether the scollbars are functioning in your system....if so, then please suggest me where i could be wrong...
If it;s not functional even in your system...please let me know how to make it work...
As far as i know, the code looks fine, but i gues i have missed out something and may be that is creating the problem....
here is the sample code:
import org.eclipse.swt.SWT;
import org.eclipse.swt.custom.ScrolledComposite;
import org.eclipse.swt.graphics.Point;
import org.eclipse.swt.graphics.Rectangle;
import org.eclipse.swt.layout.FillLayout;
import org.eclipse.swt.layout.GridData;
import org.eclipse.swt.layout.GridLayout;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Composite;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Display;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Label;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Shell;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Text;

comp.setLayout(compLyt);
comp.setLayoutData(compLytData);
Label l = new Label(comp, SWT.BORDER);;
l.setText("this is sample lable");
GridData ldata = new GridData();
ldata.widthHint = 200;
l.setLayoutData(ldata);
Text t = new Text(comp, SWT.BORDER);
t.setText("hello");
GridData tdata = new GridData();
tdata.widthHint = 100;
t.setLayoutData(ldata);
scrollComposite.setContent(comp);
scrollComposite.setExpandVertical(true);
scrollComposite.setExpandHorizontal(true);
//pack();
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
when you run this sample code...by default scroll bars are visible...since the TextField which has text "Hello" is not completely visible.....now when i try to move the scrollbar horizontally to view the hidden text, it doesn;t work...please let me know if you too have this issue....please revert back as soon as possible.....
NOTE::: Anybody can run this code and let me know if the scrollbars are functional...and if possible please tell me where am i going wrong!!!!!
Any suggestions at the earliest will be very grateful...
Thanks...

AllRight...
Guys i found out the problem where i was doing wrong...it was the layout issue. For the control on which we are going to draw the ScrolledComposite should have a "FillLayout"..this way it works...
You guys can check the modified below code which works exactly as expected...
import org.eclipse.swt.SWT;
import org.eclipse.swt.custom.ScrolledComposite;
import org.eclipse.swt.graphics.Point;
import org.eclipse.swt.graphics.Rectangle;
import org.eclipse.swt.layout.FillLayout;
import org.eclipse.swt.layout.GridData;
import org.eclipse.swt.layout.GridLayout;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Composite;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Display;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Label;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Shell;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Text;

Anyways thanks to all the guys...who atleast gave a try on this.....
cheers  ,
