Hi,

does somebody here know for sure wether using a JPanel with
OverlayLayout and a couple of Image-JLabels on it in an
SWT_AWT.new_Frame() works or doesn't work?

If it should work, any explanation why I have a problem upon resizing
the whole window? (It seems the JLabels don't get repainted or something
similar)

Anything that works in a stand alone AWT/Swing program should work in
SWT_AWT. Please enter a bug report with a complete example that shows the
problem.

Last time I asked such a question I got the answer that one can expect
problems with Swing components in SWT_AWT. But that was with eclipse 3.0...

Anyway setting up a small test example showed that in fact the
OverlayPanel is not the culprit, so it's something else in the logic of
the real code.

Thanks,

Andreas

.... however, one can't expect problems to get fixed that go unreported.

The problem has nothing to do with Eclipse/SWT. The JLabel wasn't
picking up the size of the image it was given to display, thus it was
sized 0x0 pixel and the area where it should be displayed looked empty.

I'll see if I can create a minimal example and report this to SUN.
