Tableviewer column border/spacing problem [message #649815] Thu, 20 January 2011 16:17 Go to next message

Hello,

I have a tableviewer with a number of columns.
I am trying to draw rectangles inside each cell of the tableviewer using

gc.drawRectangle(x,y,width,height).

It turns out that the rectangle are drawn at different coordinate values in the first column compared to columns n. 2, 3, etc.

It looks like the rectangles in the first column are right-shifted by ~5px in the x axis.
The code to draw rectangles in the table is the same, regardless of the column.

I've tried to activate/deactivate the SWT.BORDER in the tableviewer styles but nothing changed...

Is there a way to fix this behavior?

Thanks,
Francesca

Hi,

This could be an swt bug. Does it work better for you if you draw each
cell's rectangle when you receive a PaintItem event for it (see
http://www.eclipse.org/articles/article.php?file=Article-Cus tomDrawingTableAndTreeItems/index.html )
?

HI Grant,
thanks for your reply. How do I actually set the PaintItem?

Now the cells of the tableviewer display Images that contain these rectangles. So the selection is programmatic.

I find that I can add the PaintIem to a table for example, but how do I add it to an Image?

Thanks,
Francesca

The PaintItem listener is always added to a Table or Tree, but as it is
called for each of the table's cells you can do whatever you want to the
cell's content. The snippet below demonstrates drawing a border around each
cell's bounds and its image's bounds. The snippet uses only swt, but jface
exposes custom draw functionality in a similar way as demonstrated in
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/viewvc.cgi/org.eclipse.jface. snippets/Eclipse%20JFace%20Snippets/org/eclipse/jface/snippe ts/viewers/Snippet010OwnerDraw.java?revision=1.8&view=ma rkup&pathrev=HEAD .

public static void main(String[] args) {
final Display display = new Display();
Shell shell = new Shell(display);
shell.setBounds(10,10,400,200);
shell.setLayout(new FillLayout());
Table table = new Table(shell, SWT.NONE);
Image image = new Image(display, 16, 16);
GC gc = new GC(image);
gc.setBackground(display.getSystemColor(SWT.COLOR_BLACK));
gc.fillOval(0, 0, 15, 15);
gc.dispose();
new TableColumn(table, SWT.NONE).setWidth(90);
new TableColumn(table, SWT.NONE).setWidth(90);
new TableColumn(table, SWT.NONE).setWidth(90);
new TableColumn(table, SWT.NONE).setWidth(90);
for (int i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
TableItem item = new TableItem(table, SWT.NONE);
for (int j = 0; j < 4; j++) {
item.setText(j, i + "," + j);
item.setImage(j, image);
}
}
table.addListener(SWT.PaintItem, new Listener() {
public void handleEvent(Event event) {
TableItem item = (TableItem)event.item;
event.gc.setForeground(display.getSystemColor(SWT.COLOR_RED) );
event.gc.setLineStyle(SWT.LINE_DOT);
Rectangle rect = item.getImageBounds(event.index);
rect.height -= 1; rect.width -= 1;
event.gc.drawRectangle(rect);
event.gc.setForeground(display.getSystemColor(SWT.COLOR_BLUE ));
rect = item.getBounds(event.index);
rect.height -= 1; rect.width -= 1;
event.gc.drawRectangle(rect);
}
});
shell.open();
while (!shell.isDisposed()) {
if (!display.readAndDispatch()) display.sleep();
}
image.dispose();
display.dispose();
}
