Hi Thomas,
Once an image is set on one item, the native tree reserves a gap with this
size for all other items in the column. The only workaround for this is to
custom draw your items. If most of your items do not have an image to show
then this may be a reasonable thing to do if the additional gaps that you're
currently getting are really problematic. If you want to investigate doing
this then the following links should be helpful:
article on custom drawing at the swt level:
http://www.eclipse.org/articles/article.php?file=Article-Cus tomDrawingTableAndTreeItems/index.html
swt-level snippet that demonstrates drawing items with various image sizes:
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/%7Echeckout%7E/org. eclipse.swt.snippets/src/org/eclipse/swt/snippets/Snippet349 .java
swt-level snippet that demonstrates drawing just trailing images (less
intrusive/effort than the previous snippet):
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/%7Echeckout%7E/org. eclipse.swt.snippets/src/org/eclipse/swt/snippets/Snippet220 .java
jface-level snippet of using custom draw:
