I have a ScrolledComposite that contains a label. When pack() is called
on the label (whenever the text changes) the label is given a width,
greater than the ScrolledComposites width, thereby cutting of the last of
the text in the line.

On looking into this I see the Label.computeSize estimates the width but
does not ensure that the width is less than or equal to the width of the
parent.

Is this correct behaviour?

Cheers
Paul

Paul,

I am pretty sure that this is correct behavior. If you have doubts,
you could create the same scenario in SWT and see how it behaves.

Cheers,
