No scroll bars for ScrolledComposite? [message #462355]

I am trying to create a view that contains a scrolling frame at the bottom
2/3 of the screen. The view stars with a parent Composite. To that I add
a Composite for the top banner and a ScrolledComposite for the bottom. I
add my content to the ScrolledComposite but if it exceeds the limits of the
window it does not display scroll bars. My application already contains
another view that uses a ScrolledComposite for a scrolling table and it
works fine.

Can anyone suggest a course of action?

Have you tried to add the following :

yourScrollableComposite.setExpandedHorizontal(true);
yourScrollableComposite.setExpandedVertical(true);
yourScrollableComposite.setContent(yourContent);

scrolledComposite.setMinSize(composite.getSize());

scrolledComposite.setExpandHorizontal(true);

scrolledComposite.setExpandVertical(true);

scrolledComposite.setContent(composite);

I add objects to "composite" and then add it to "scolledComposite".
