Wizard dispalay problem [message #452370]

Hi

I am writing a wizard to change the password of a user. Everyting works
quite good, but I have a problem using the method serErrorMessage(). As
soon as I replace the Message with an error Message, a part of the back-
ground of the title area turns gray instead of white. When I reset the
error messge to null, everything looks fine again.

The code where I set the error message:
if (usernameText.getText().equals("")) {
setMessage(null);
setErrorMessage("A username must be specified");
return;
}

A screen shot of the wizard can be seen on:

Am I doing something wrong or is this behaviour normal (I don't think so
because the "new project wizard" of Eclipse does not have the problem)?

Thanks in advance

Michael

That's a feature of jface TitleDialogArea (I think since 3.0); you can
take a look there for seErrorMesage() code.
Also New Project Wizard has same behaviour (enter an existing Project Name
to see that...).
If you dislike it, take a look of
public void setMessage(String newMessage, int newType)
JavaDoc.

Regards,
Tiberiu
