TableViewer and native looking widgets [message #24083]

Hello.

I read the blog entry of Tom Schindl about native looking widgets in a table viewer
( http://tom-eclipse-dev.blogspot.com/2007/01/tableviewers-and -nativelooking.html). I also tried the
JFace snippet.
But when I use it in my table viewer (in a dialog of my RCP app), the problem is that when makeShot
is called, the widgetS (from wich are images created) get visible for a short time at the corner of
the screen and the current control lost it's focus and regains it again. Thats not really reasonable
for the user.
Any solutions for that?

Regards,
Kai

Hi,

There's no other solution because you can't take a shot from something
invisible :-(

What I do in my applications is to make it part of the startup process
(the shot is made only once because it is restored in a static-variable)
because then the users is not interacting with the application.
