Is there a way to dynamically paint part of the rectangle where the image
is going to appear for the treeitems in the tree?

I have done this before in the switg.TreeCellRenderer by overloading the
paint(Graphics g) method in order to paint some extra info next to the
icon of a treenode.

I looked through the SWT documentation and was unable to find anything
that would make it possible. Right now the only option i have is to return
different images dynamically when certain condition is met. This option is
not desireable since i would have to build different icons for the same
node that changes state.

Thanks,
Farzad

You'll have to build the different icons. It's a platform limitation.
