Hi all,
I want my composite behave like a popup:
As long as the user interacts within this composite it should still be
visible. But this first time, the user clicks somewhere else it should
disappear.
I played a bit with the focus listener, but that does not do the trick.
The menu is a good example for this behaviour, but it uses a qooxdoo popup
class and I assume, that the logic is put somewhere in there.
Is it possible to simulated this behaviour in plain SWT? Or do I need a
popup on JS site? And if so can I put a composite within a popup?
Any advice?
Thanks,
Niels

Yes,
I opened a shell, put the composite inside. Furthermore I attached a
focuslistener on the shell to catch "focus lost events". Problem with this
approach:
The focus lost event is even fired, if a button inside the composite (in the
shell) is clicked. So I coded a check to see if any child control has the
focus and kept the shell visible. But once the shell looses its focus no
more events of those are fired. So if you click afterwards somewhere else in
the app, the shell doesn't notice hat and is still visible.

Hi Niels,
you can do this with ShellListener instead of FocusListener.
