Highlighting over item bounds [message #13789]

Hi

This is a nebula/newbie question:

On selection, I'd like the titleArea and childArea to be highlighted as
one. I have the bounds highlighted but a little ~halo just around the
perimeter of the childArea control remains white. I added a border to the
child contents composite to check it out, area in question is within the
border. How do I get that painted? Thanks.

(single control in child composite, fillLayout)

It's subtle, so I want to make sure you're aware that the
createChildContents method passes in an SComposite for the parameter
"contents", and not a regular Composite.
There have also been changes to the SComposite class, and its creation
in the CContainerCell, so please update them from cvs (there is also the
addition of javadocs in SComposite :))
If the update does not fix this, I probably misunderstand the problem,
in which case please post a small screenshot to show the problem.

cheers
