ComboBox in Popup window [message #772019]

Hi All,

In SWT, i want to pop up a window when the user clicks on a image and then display a combo box which will get the list items dynamically as the user enters the text into the combo's text field. I am searching for a way to get this done but i am not getting a way to start.

Kindly let me know if this is possible in some way.

Thanks.

Tom,

I'm using a ContentProposalAdapter in my program and would love to override some of the behavior....like the double click or the fact that once it gets focus it doesn't give it up......you don't happen to know how to do that - do you? I'm going to be asking this in the SWT group as well, but figured since you brought it up here as an answer to this other question I'd ask.

I find that while the widget is very useful, it's very closed with regards to overriding some of the behaviors......which is the reason why I find its usefulness very limiting.
