Table SWT and Selection [message #453079]

Hello,

When I select an editable cell of an SWT Table, I have noticed that I'm
directly in a edition mode of this cell. I have looked the source code
and it seems to be the default behavior.
The default behavior I know about Table (in general) is that I have to
make a double click in the cell to enter in the edition mode and a
simple click just select the full line.
So it seems that the SWT Table has the opposite behavior I used to know.

Is is the normal implementation it has been decided for it or should it
be a bug ?

Can anyone give me helpful informations ?

Thanks for help.
Thomas.

hi I have the same problem and dealing with this since a couple of days. But
also found no solution to go arround. I think its not a bug. Its just a
feature because its pretty common to edit with one click in unix based
operated systems.

I might not be understanding the real problem, as if you change the
MouseDown event type to MouseDoubleClick in

http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/org.eclipse.swt.sni ppets/src/org/eclipse/swt/snippets/Snippet124.java?rev=HEAD& amp;content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup

then you get doubleclick-to-edit-cell. Did I misunderstand the problem?
