Hi all,
I'm trying to make Sudoku game as training in SWT and I need to make the cells square. I tried to use Text controls (some of them will not be editable) and GridLayout, but I can't see any posibility to force the Text to be correctly shaped and still fill the whole Shell.
Thank you very much,

Martin

Hi again,
I solved it finally but had to override checkSubclass method for Text. I overrode the setBounds method and used following body:

super.setBounds(x, y, Math.min(width, height),Math.min(width, height));

I read that it is not good solution to override some classes like Text, so different/nicer solution will be still welcomed.
Thank you very much,
Martin
