Hello,

i got the following problem:

i want to show a Table when i modify the text of the Text field. I implemented some kind of autocomplete and when the button is pressed the table with results is show. the problem is that the result table is shown behind all other widgets on the composite. i want it to be in front of that widgets so i can see the contest of the table.
the table has the same parent as the text field and all other fields. any ideas how to tell the table or composite to put the table in front of every other composite children?

Thx, Edin

Hi Edin,

did you try the Control#moveAbove(Control) and
Control#moveBelow(Control) methods?

Best,
Ivan

the only problem now is the following:
i have a table, and when i click in one tablecell, i display a second table exactly under the selected cell. now i use move method on the second table, and it is shown on top (you can see the context), but the column lines of the first tables are visible on this second. but only the column lines, not the row lines. seems like the second table is transparent for the column lines. i used table.moveAbove(null);

is it normal that, if there is a vertical scrollbar in a SWT.Table, the Table shows automatically horizontal scrollbar? i made a table that automatically resizes depending on the element count. but if elements count > 5 the height wouldn't reisze to show all items. at this moment i want to get vertical bar displayed. it works but right then i get the horizontal bar too. But it looks not so pretty and is not needed, so how to get it invisible?
