Thanks for the response, but it turned out to be a much simpler fix: call
getShell().setSize() after adding the widgets to the panel.

the same. Except for the fact that I like to set the Shell size in the
constructor, that'd be pretty good. I'm rather pleased that 3.1 will
include a better way of doing this. I'm rather pleased with the SWT
3.1 effort altogether. Way to go guys!<br>

What method do I need to call to make them appear? These don't seem to
work:
<br>
panel.layout(true) panel.getShell().redraw()
<br>

<br>
What happens if you call panel.getShell().layout(true)? Try calling
layout(true) on different panels to see if it makes a difference.
<br>
<br>
Had this problem, too, some time ago and layout(true) on the right
composite helped.
