I have a TreeViewer in which I need to select multiple nodes with
different parent nodes. SWTBotTree and SWTTreeBotTreeItem#select
(String... items) seems to work only if the items are siblings - child
nodes of the root in the former case and of the treeItem in the latter.
Nice but not what I need. An alternative would seem to be multiple
#select calls with the CTRL key pressed. Both bots inherit a set of
#pressShortcut methods but they seem to work only if modifier keys are
followed by 'natural' keys... but not by a mouse click.
Has anyone been able to do such a selection? Or perhaps have some ideas
how I might make one?
Any help greatly appreciated.
