I have a composite with a background image, and to show this image
properly, I use the drawString method for putting in text, instead of
labels. How can I erase one such text line, before updating it with a
new one?
Thanks,
Lindsey.

Use Control.redraw(in, int, int, int, boolean). This will damage the area
you want to change and then in the paint event for that area, you draw it
correctly. You will have to draw the image as well as the text. You can
draw a portion of an image using GC.drawImage(Image image, int srcX, int
srcY, int srcWidth, int srcHeight, int destX, int destY, int destWidth, int
destHeight).

Note also that org.eclipse.swt.custom.CLabel supports text over an image.
Use CLabel.setBackground(Image) to set an image in the background.

Thanks Veronika. However, does CLabel support transparency? My composite
has the background image, and I would prefer not to have break up the
image into multiple parts, and then assign one of these parts as a
background image to a CLabel.
Thanks,
Lindsey.

It doesn't. There is currently no support for transparency in SWT.
