I have found when using Windows XP theme with Eclipse the
TabFolder/TabItem use a nice highlighting scheme as Windows XP does (see
second page in New Java Project wizard). But in our application, which
is also running on Windows XP theme, we must use CTabFolder/CTabItem (as
a container for MultiPageEditorPart) and we don't get these nice tabs
highlighting. Can anybody shed some light onto this or hint how to get
CtabFolder to look like TabFolder?
TIA,
Ihor

Check out this page. It's not in english, but the code is! :)

On it, you will find a code snippet for setting the colors of the
CTabFolder to match the system colors. Not sure if this is what you were
looking for, but it makes a very good looking CTabFolder that depends on
the OS colors.
//-----------------------------------
// System colored CTabFolder
//-----------------------------------
Display display = Display.getCurrent();
　　Color titleForeColor =
　　　　display.getS ystemColor(SWT.COLOR_TITLE_FOREGROUND);
　　Color titleBackColor1 =
　　　　display.getS ystemColor(SWT.COLOR_TITLE_BACKGROUND);
　　Color titleBackColor2 =
　　　　display.getS ystemColor(SWT.COLOR_TITLE_BACKGROUND_GRADIENT);
　　tabFolder.setSelectionForeground(tit leForeColor);
　　tabFolder.setSelectionBackground(
　　　　new Color[] {titleBackColor1,
titleBackColor2},
　　　　new int[] {100},
　　　　true
　　);

Cool. It worked! This is something I was looking for for a while.
Thanks.

This is not what I'm looking for. Windows XP theme has a thin golden
strip on the top of the active tab, and when you move your mouse cursor
over inactive tabs they will get this thin golder strip as well. SWT
TabFolder as a native peer supports Windows XP theme, but CTabFolder
(pure Java) does not.
This article will give you an idea of what I'm looking for.

which I think is not possible with current SWT.

CTabFolder is not meant to be just like a native tabfolder with added
capabilities. CTabFolder is meant to be part of the "branding" of Eclipse
giving it a customized look.
