SWT Layout control size [message #441271]

I have a SWT form being laid out that has three buttons side-by-side in the
lower right corner of the form. How can I make the buttons all be the same
size without having to specify the size? Basically I want to use the
platform-specific natural size of the widest button for all the buttons.

If the buttons were stacked vertically, I could align their left/right sides
to get them to be the same width. How can I get the same width when they're
lined up in a row instead of a column?

Thanks....

Mike

Try putting them in a RowLayout with pack set to false.
