ToolItem programmatic selection problem [message #126894]

I have a toolbar with some toolItems in RADIO style as a navigation aid.
Kinda like a tab folder but instead the toolItem marks what page you are
on. Only one item should stays "pressed".
In my program I need to programmatically navigate to another page, so I
would unselect the current item and select the new item. This works fine
in SWT, but in RAP the setSelection calls doesn't cause the item to change
graphically. Is this a bug or am I missing something?

Thanks,
Howard

Howard,

if it works in SWT, it is most certainly a bug. Feel free to open a
bugzilla. In the meanwhile, did you consider using TOGGLE Buttons?

Cheers,
Rüdiger

Done. Bug ID 271152.

I suppose it would be okay to change the ToolBar/ToolItems to
Composite/Buttons, since the "ToolBar" currently doesn't do much else. I
will give that a shot if I get time to fix this issue. Thanks for the
suggestion.

Cheers,
Howard
