Folding?? [message #462669]

Hi,

I want to build an application with a folding mechanism thatŽs quite
similar to the folding of code segments in the java editor in eclipse. The
only difference is that i donŽt want it for just some piece of text, but
for a whole composite.

Means that i want to have a toggle button which is responsible for the
folding and next to it a screen area, which shows different controls
whether the button is pressed or not. For example in one case there should
be 3 textfields in a row and in the other case there should be 3 rows and
in each row a label and a textfield next to it.

But in both cases the underlying data is the same - only the presentation
is different.

Until now the only way i found to accomplish this is that with every
toggle of the button i dispose the old composite and draw the alternative
view, which is very messy.

I have to admit that IŽm quite new to SWT.

Does anybody know a better solution to this?? Or is there some SWT
component which is capable of that?
