Hi All,

I am using the ScrolledComposite for a existing control(with many children) based on the method2 mentioned here :http://www.placelab.org/toolkit/doc/javadoc/org/placelab/ut il/swt/SwtScrolledComposite.html

The only change is instead of creating a new shell & display I am using the existing control's parent. I am seeing the scroll bars as expected but the existing control/content is displayed form the centre & not from the start. The first half(vertically split) of the layout is empty & the actual control/content gets displayed in the right-half. I checked bounds, Origin, size etc. of both the content & scrolledComposite they seem to be fine.

screenshot putup here :http://img818.imageshack.us/i/contentstartsfrommiddle.jpg

Any clues

Thanks in advance

Hi,

Its hard to tell the exact problem without looking at the code. Please post a code snippet that shows the problem. From the screenshot I guess there is an empty composite in the first half.
