I am trying to add multiple StyledText widgets to a single scrollable
widget. The idea is that I can add text to each StyledText and they
all scroll together within a single scrollbar. I am using multiple StyledTexts
because I will later add images between them. I have not found a way to embed images
to a StyledText widget.
This is the composite hierarchy I have right now :
Shell
ScrolledComposite
Group
StyledText1
StyledText2
......
......
StyledTextN
My problem is that even just having a single StyledText in the group does
not display across the entire window. The StyledText is only
big enough to display its text and I don't know how to set the size of
the StyledText, I have tried setSize() and setBounds() to large numbers
but that did not work, here is a code sample :
public Composite getComposite(final Composite aParentComposite)
{
gScrolledComposite = new ScrolledComposite(aParentComposite,
SWT.V_SCROLL | SWT.H_SCROLL);
gGroup = new Group(gScrolledComposite, SWT.SHADOW_NONE );
gScrolledComposite.setContent(gGroup);
aParentComposite.setBackground(new Color(gDisplay, 0, 255, 0));
gGroup.setBackground(new Color(gDisplay, 255, 0, 0));
RowLayout aRowLayout = new RowLayout(SWT.VERTICAL);
aRowLayout.wrap = false;
aRowLayout.spacing = 0;
gGroup.setLayout(aRowLayout);
StyledText aStyledText = new StyledText(gGroup, SWT.NONE);
aStyledText.setText("xxx");
aStyledText.setSize(600, 400);
gGroup.layout(true);
gGroup.setSize(600, gGroup.computeSize(SWT.DEFAULT, SWT.DEFAULT, true).y);
return gScrolledComposite;
}
SO all I get is a StyledText that displays 'xxx' and which does not
have room for me to add any more text.
Any help is much appreciated,
thanks,
John.

Since you're using layouts, you need to specify any sizes in the layout data
for the widget. Something like the following should work:
public static void main(String[] args) {
Test test = new Test();
Shell shell = new Shell(SWT.TITLE | SWT.MENU | SWT.MIN | SWT.RESIZE |
SWT.MAX);
shell.setLayout(new RowLayout(SWT.VERTICAL));
Composite group = new Composite(shell, SWT.NULL);
group.setLayout(new RowLayout());
StyledText text = new StyledText(group, SWT.NONE);
text.setText("xxx");
RowData data = new RowData();
data.height = 400;
data.width = 600;
text.setLayoutData(data);
shell.pack();
shell.open();
Display display = shell.getDisplay();
while (!shell.isDisposed())
if (!display.readAndDispatch())
display.sleep();
display.dispose();
}

If you don't want to hard code widths, you can use GridLayout or FormLayout:
public static void main (String [] args) {
Display display = new Display ();
Image image = new Image(display,
Newsgroup.class.getResourceAsStream("../images/image.bmp"));
Shell shell = new Shell (display);
shell.setLayout(new FillLayout());
ScrolledComposite sc = new ScrolledComposite(shell, SWT.V_SCROLL |
SWT.H_SCROLL);
Composite c = new Composite(sc, SWT.NONE);
c.setLayout(new GridLayout());
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
StyledText text = new StyledText(c, SWT.MULTI | SWT.WRAP |
SWT.BORDER);
text.setText("paragraph 1");
GridData data = new GridData(SWT.FILL, SWT.TOP, true,
false);
data.heightHint = 50;
text.setLayoutData(data);
Label label = new Label(c, SWT.NONE);
label.setImage(image);
label.setLayoutData(new GridData(SWT.CENTER, SWT.TOP, false,
false));
label = new Label(c, SWT.NONE);
label.setText("Figure "+i);
label.setLayoutData(new GridData(SWT.CENTER, SWT.TOP, false,
false));
}
c.layout();
sc.setContent(c);
Point size = c.computeSize(SWT.DEFAULT, SWT.DEFAULT);
sc.setExpandHorizontal(true);
sc.setExpandVertical(true);
sc.setMinSize(size);
shell.setSize(400, 300);
shell.open ();
while (!shell.isDisposed ()) {
if (!display.readAndDispatch ()) display.sleep ();
}
display.dispose ();
}
