Flat border around a Browser widget [message #514817]

I am just trying to paint a flat looking border around a Browser widget, in order to look good inside a FormEditor.
But there is no CSS support in RAP for the widget Browser (according to http://help.eclipse.org/galileo/index.jsp?topic=/org.eclipse .rap.help/help/html/reference/theming/index.html ), nor for Composite. And also FormToolkit.paintBordersFor() is not supported by RAP.
The workaround is to have an one pixel wider parent Composite and set the background color to the wanted border color.

But this is quite ugly, do you know other solutions?

Is there any chance to get CSS support for such widgets like Browser until the 1.3 release? At least for some simple properties like "border"? (I already opened an enhancement request: #302975 in RAP bugzilla)

Hi Bogdan,

bug is fixed. Browser "border" is now themeable.

Best,
Ivan

I already saw in the change log of Bug #302975 that you committed the enhancement for 1.3M6.
Thanks, Ivan, for implementing it and for the fast response time!
