I have a relatively simple question to ask. I am working on SWT Table widget with 2 columns. I simply want to be able to select the 2nd column using keyboard.
I have already tried using SWT.SINGLE and SWT.MULTI while creating the table. but I am not able to go to 2nd column using keyboard (preferrably tab key). FYI, 2nd column is a drop down and I want user to be able to select the value using keyboard thats y i prefer to go between cells using tab so that I can use arrow keys on this drop down box once selected(I am using a comboBoxCellEditor on this column). but my current code lets me only navigate through 1st column.
Also, only the second column is editable and not the 1st column
Here is the code:
{
//created table with SWT.FULL_SELECTION
Table table = new Table(contentArea, SWT.BORDER | SWT.FULL_SELECTION);
//create table viewer
viewer = new TableViewer(table);
viewer.setContentProvider(new IStructuredContentProvider());
//1st column
TableViewerColumn column1 = new TableViewerColumn(viewer, SWT.NONE);
column1 .getColumn().setText("Coulm 1");
viewer.getColumn().setWidth(200);
//2nd Column
TableViewerColumn column2 = new TableViewerColumn(viewer, SWT.NONE);
column2.getColumn().setText("Column 2");
column2.getColumn().setWidth(200);
//some other code
}
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks

I tried using the cellNAvigationStrategy but couldnt get the desired behaviour. I want to be bale to navigate to 2nd column using tab or arrow and activate the combobox and its cell editor.
Please guide what am i doing wrong in the code below ?
Thanks
{
//created table with SWT.FULL_SELECTION
Table table = new Table(contentArea, SWT.BORDER | SWT.FULL_SELECTION);
//create table viewer
viewer = new TableViewer(table);
viewer.setContentProvider(new IStructuredContentProvider());
//1st column
TableViewerColumn column1 = new TableViewerColumn(viewer, SWT.NONE);
column1 .getColumn().setText("Coulm 1");
viewer.getColumn().setWidth(200);
//2nd Column
TableViewerColumn column2 = new TableViewerColumn(viewer, SWT.NONE);
column2.getColumn().setText("Column 2");
column2.getColumn().setWidth(200);
CellNavigationStrategy strategy = new CellNavigationStrategy() {
@Override
public ViewerCell findSelectedCell(ColumnViewer viewer,
ViewerCell currentSelectedCell, Event event) {
ViewerCell cell = null;
switch (event.keyCode) {
case SWT.TAB:
if (event.stateMask == 0) {
cell = currentSelectedCell.getNeighbor(ViewerCell.RIGHT, true);
} else {
cell = currentSelectedCell.getNeighbor(ViewerCell.LEFT, true);
}
break;
}
if (cell != null) {
TableColumn t = runtimesTableViewer.getTable().getColumn(
cell.getColumnIndex());
runtimesTableViewer.getTable().showColumn(t);
}
return cell;
}
@Override
public boolean isNavigationEvent(ColumnViewer viewer, Event event) {
switch (event.keyCode) {
case SWT.TAB:
return true;
default:
return super.isNavigationEvent(viewer, event);
}
}
};
TableViewerFocusCellManager focusCellManager = new TableViewerFocusCellManager(viewer,new FocusCellOwnerDrawHighlighter(runtimesTableViewer), strategy);
ColumnViewerEditorActivationStrategy actSupport = new ColumnViewerEditorActivationStrategy(runtimesTableViewer) {
protected boolean isEditorActivationEvent(ColumnViewerEditorActivationEvent event) {
return event.eventType == ColumnViewerEditorActivationEvent.TRAVERSAL
|| event.eventType == ColumnViewerEditorActivationEvent.MOUSE_CLICK_SELECTION
|| (event.eventType == ColumnViewerEditorActivationEvent.KEY_PRESSED && event.keyCode == SWT.TAB)
|| event.eventType == ColumnViewerEditorActivationEvent.PROGRAMMATIC;
}
};
TableViewerEditor.create(viewer, focusCellManager, actSupport, ColumnViewerEditor.TABBING_HORIZONTAL
| ColumnViewerEditor.TABBING_MOVE_TO_ROW_NEIGHBOR
| ColumnViewerEditor.TABBING_VERTICAL | ColumnViewerEditor.KEYBOARD_ACTIVATION);
runtimesTableViewer.getColumnViewerEditor().addEditorActivationListener(new ColumnViewerEditorActivationListener(){
@Override
public void afterEditorActivated(
ColumnViewerEditorActivationEvent event) {
}
@Override
public void afterEditorDeactivated(
ColumnViewerEditorDeactivationEvent event) {
}
@Override
public void beforeEditorActivated(
ColumnViewerEditorActivationEvent event) {
ViewerCell cell = (ViewerCell) event.getSource();
runtimesTableViewer.getTable().showColumn(viewer.getTable().getColumn(cell.getColumnIndex()));
}
@Override
public void beforeEditorDeactivated(
ColumnViewerEditorDeactivationEvent event) {
}
});
