I'm new to RCP and tries to design a simple GUI using different
tutorials. All works, but unfortunately the width of my Text objects
always adjust to the length of the default text - regardless of the
predefined size. Furthermore I set the style of my Text objects to
SWT.V_SCROLL and SWT.H_SCROLL as described in several tutorials, but the
text runs out of the shell - there is no line break.

Any ideas?
Thanks.

I solved the problem using GridData Object Fields:
