Hi all,

I encounter a problem and can't deal with it.

I wanna create a ExpandBar and a multi-line Label to fill it as an ExpandItem like this:

-------------------------------------
System Info |
-------------------------------------
System Name: XX |
Details : multiline.. |
text..... |
-------------------------------------


When I fill the Wrap lable in to the ExpandItem I found it can't be shown property, when I change the width of the ExpandBar,
The ExpandItem can't compute the correct size.


import org.eclipse.swt.SWT;
import org.eclipse.swt.custom.SashForm;
import org.eclipse.swt.layout.FillLayout;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Composite;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Display;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.ExpandBar;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.ExpandItem;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Label;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Shell;

public class Main {
 // public class Main {

 public static void main(String[] args) {

		Display display = new Display();
		final Shell shell = new Shell(display);
		shell.setLayout(new FillLayout());
		shell.setSize(400, 400);
		
		SashForm sf = new SashForm(shell, SWT.HORIZONTAL);
		Composite lCom = new Composite(sf, SWT.NONE);
		lCom.setLayout(new FillLayout());
		
		Composite rCom = new Composite(sf, SWT.NONE);
		rCom.setLayout(new FillLayout());
		
		
		
		ExpandBar expandBar = new ExpandBar(lCom, SWT.NONE);
		final ExpandItem expandItem = new ExpandItem(expandBar, SWT.NONE);
		
		final Label label = new Label(expandBar, SWT.WRAP);
		label.setText("aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa");
		expandItem.setHeight(label.computeSize(SWT.DEFAULT, SWT.DEFAULT).y);
		expandItem.setControl(label);

		
		shell.open();
		while (!shell.isDisposed()) {
			if (!display.readAndDispatch())
				display.sleep();
		}
		display.dispose();
 }

}



So what should I do , Thanks

This should do what you want...

public static void main(String[] args) {
Display display = new Display();
final Shell shell = new Shell(display);
shell.setLayout(new FillLayout());
shell.setSize(400, 400);
SashForm sf = new SashForm(shell, SWT.HORIZONTAL);
Composite lCom = new Composite(sf, SWT.NONE);
lCom.setLayout(new FillLayout());
Composite rCom = new Composite(sf, SWT.NONE);
rCom.setLayout(new FillLayout());
final ExpandBar expandBar = new ExpandBar(lCom, SWT.NONE);
final ExpandItem expandItem = new ExpandItem(expandBar, SWT.NONE);
final Label label = new Label(expandBar, SWT.WRAP);
label.setText("a aa aaa aaaa aaaaa aaaaaa aaaaaaa aaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaa
aaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaa");
//expandItem.setHeight(label.computeSize(SWT.DEFAULT, SWT.DEFAULT).y);
expandBar.addListener(SWT.Resize, new Listener() { // <---
public void handleEvent(Event event) {
Point size = label.computeSize(expandBar.getClientArea().width,
SWT.DEFAULT);
expandItem.setHeight(size.y);
}
});
expandItem.setControl(label);
shell.open();
while (!shell.isDisposed()) {
if (!display.readAndDispatch()) display.sleep();
}
display.dispose();
}

Waw ! Grant Gayed, thank you very much.

I really do think the Wrap Label in swt is a troublesome thing when involved into Layout.


Thanks & Best Regards,
Steven
