So I have a very wide table -- 3904 columns. I recently noticed that only the first 273 column headers are displayed; the table simply stops drawing them after that, though all table data columns are drawn. (See attached screenshot). I have verified all columns are being added to the viewer and that the columns post-273 have correct titles.

Here's the "add columns" code, it's pretty damn boilerplate:
GC gc = new GC (tvReportData.getTable());
			FontMetrics fm = gc.getFontMetrics ();
			for (Object f : loanDataSource.getFields())
			{
				TableViewerColumn tvc=new TableViewerColumn(tvReportData,SWT.NONE);
				tvc.getColumn().setText(f.toString());
				int width=(f.toString().length()+2)*fm.getAverageCharWidth ();
				tvc.getColumn().setWidth(width);
			}


I'm not doing anything fancy with renderers, etc. I can't see any "Magic numbers" (i.e, powers of 2) in the number of words, characters, or entries. I'm not even sure where to begin looking, though I guess "known bugs" might be a good place to start. Beyond that, any ideas?

Hello Ian,

I don't think this is a JFace Bug. I am having the same problem on a virtual SWT Table without JFace TableViewer. But it seems to me as if not the number of shown column headers was limited but rather the width of them: When I resize some columns with shown headers, i see more column headers and I also see half shown column headers. So if you get the same problem without a TableViewer this would rather be an issue for the SWT Board.

I searched the whole Eclipse Bugzilla for this bug, but I could not find any clue. Anyone heard of this rendering problem before?

I found one previous report:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=72293 , it's an OS problem.

I actually "solved" the problem, and a lot of other issues, w/the Nebula grid and grid viewer. So it's certainly possible to display a grid that wide w/all column headers rendered.
