Combo/List box with images? [message #446239]

Hello,
does the SWT Listbox or Combobox support elements with an image as label? Or
do I have to use an other control? The user should be able to select an
image from a list of images, for various items -> every item need to have
one ListBox for selection. So it is a 1:1 assignment

Thanks!

- To show a list-like widget with images you can use a Table with no header
or grid lines.
- There is not an easy equivalent like this for the combo case. The only
way to do this right now is to fake the Combo widget, like CCombo already
does. (As a side note, there is a CCombo feature request for this, see
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=4510 .
