How to design a "Tiles View" in RAP? [message #882266]

Hi everyone,
I need to show a list of objects in some different ways.
- The easiest way is use a Tableviewer and display all fields of each object.
- The second way I want to display is the view of objects must look like "Tiles View" as we use "Window Explorer" to show items. In the space of each object,there is an object's image on the left, and on the right should show some information of that object.

I still have no idea for displaying items in the 2nd way.
Thank you very much for any suggestion.

SWT does not provide such a tile view out of the box. You may find
something useful in the Nebula project [1]. If not, may be the SWT
snippets [2] can help to compose a custom component?

Thanks Ralf so much.
Based on links you provide, I found the way to extend a Composite and using RowLayout to display all these customized composites.
My Tile view is working now.
