I am using a treeviewer in my application to perform in-place editing with double click editor activation. On windows 7 when I double click in a cell to activate the in-place editor, the tree node inappropriately expands/collapses.

Is it possible to disable expand/collapse on double click? I don't remember having this problem before moving to windows 7 from XP.

I think this is a bug, but I found a workaround. I found this in the Tree class where double click events get filtered out if the tree has an event listener of type SWT.MeasureItem.

	
case OS.NM_DBLCLK: {
			/*
			* When the user double clicks on a tree item
			* or a line beside the item, the window proc
			* for the tree collapses or expand the branch.
			* When application code associates an action
			* with double clicking, then the tree expand
			* is unexpected and unwanted.  The fix is to
			* avoid the operation by testing to see whether
			* the mouse was inside a tree item.
			*/
			if (hooks (SWT.MeasureItem)) return LRESULT.ONE;

Adding this to my treeviewer solved the problem:
	
		treeViewer.getControl().addListener(SWT.MeasureItem, new Listener(){
			@Override
			public void handleEvent(Event event) {
				
			}});

BTW: If you treeviewer uses an OwnerDrawLabelProvider it will add the SWT.MeasureItem for you.
