Martin,
This is the SWT newsgroup. The Nebula controls are supported on the
eclipse.technology.nebula newsgroup. I am copying your question there
as these are the right people to answer your question. I have not
actually used Gallery beyond a cursory glance--Nicolas Richeton is the
Gallery maintainer and should be able to help you.

Thanks Matthew...
Here's what I want to do... has anyone used Gallery for something simple and
text-based like this?
Point taken Robert...
Attached is a mockup... I need up to 480 3-character channels to be
displayed in the left hand list. I need them wrapped alphanumerically from
left to right each time the individual columns are filled from top to
bottom. As channels are selected (individually or multiples) in the left
hand (multi-column list) they can be moved with the [>] button to the right
hand list (Selected). I get the two lists idea. Really I do.
