How can I create a vertical toolbar? I mean a toolbar that displays on
the left or right side of the window vertically.
I tried the following code, but the toolbar is always displayed
horizontally.

toolBar = new ToolBar (shell, SWT.BORDER | SWT.FLAT | SWT.VERTICAL);

ToolItem item = new ToolItem(toolBar, SWT.PUSH); item.setImage(imgOrders);
item.setToolTipText("View Orders");
....
toolBar.pack();
....

Yuri,

Your ToolBar creation line looks right. I've verified that if you get
snippet
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/%7Echeckout%7E/plat form-swt-home/snippits/snippet36.html
and add SWT.VERTICAL to its creation style bits that it will display
vertically. If this example doesn't help you then you'll have to post a
more complete snippet since the problem likely resides elsewhere.

Is there a workaround for 2.1.1? May be I can use a layout manager or
CoolBar instead?
The problem is that I may need it for a project that has to finish
before the final 3.0 is released.

Thanks,
Yuri

Hello,

Is there a way to detect the RightClick on the Mouse on a PDA? holding the
pencil for a while, the way to do a rightmouse click in a PDA, I get the
same mouse event values that doing the normal click.

Thanks a lot.

Hi Gonzalo,

If you are referring to the PocketPC SWT port, here is the recipe below.

import org.eclipse.swt.*;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.*;
import org.eclipse.swt.layout.*;

public class PR {

public static void main(String[] args) {
Display display = new Display();
Shell shell = new Shell(display);
shell.setText("PR");
shell.setLayout(new FillLayout());
shell.addListener(SWT.MenuDetect, new Listener() {
public void handleEvent(Event e) {
System.out.println("MenuDetect");
}
});
shell.open();

while (!shell.isDisposed()) {
if (!display.readAndDispatch())
display.sleep();
}
}
}

Additional details about the Pocket PC stylus hold gesture at:
http://www.eclipse.org/articles/Article-small-cup-of-swt/poc ket-PC.html
(look up the section "Application using a pop-up menu")
