Hello Razz

I have code:

DateChooserCombo dateChooserCombo = new DateChooserCombo(shell, SWT.NONE);
Control[] control = dateChooserCombo.getChildren();
Control textInDateChooserCombo = control[0];
Control buttonInDateChooserCombo = control[1];


How to go key arrow down at the same time by textInDateChooserCombo and buttonInDateChooserCombo at once? How implements TraverseListener?

OK. Example:

1. I have three widgets: Button, DateChooserCombo, Text.
2. Default traversing TAB key is: Button -> text widget in widget DateChooserCombo -> button in widget DateChooserCombo -> Text.
3. I want change the default traverse key from TAB to ARROW DOWN.
4. How to get traversing: Button -> DateChooserCombo -> Text (only three steps).

I see. Can you post a working snippet that shows how you have solved this so far?

Problem is it in group "ARROW DOWN TRAVERSAL". ARROW DOWN key is stopped on button in widget DateChooserCombo. I would like to have also traversing: Button -> DateChooserCombo -> Text (text widget in widget DateChooserCombo and button in widget DateChooserCombo as one step).

Ah yes. The DateChooserCombo is a composite widget. The trick is to expose the button on the control.

You can subclass DateChooserCombo and expose the button:

package datechoosercombo;

import org.eclipse.nebula.widgets.datechooser.DateChooserCombo;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Button;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Composite;

public class MyCombo extends DateChooserCombo {

	private Button buttonControl;

	public MyCombo(Composite parent, int style) {
		super(parent, style);
	}

	@Override
	protected Button createButtonControl(int style) {
		buttonControl = super.createButtonControl(style);
		return getButtonControl();
	}

	public Button getButtonControl() {
		return buttonControl;
	}

}


Then add the traverse listener to the button like this:

		dateChooserCombo_1.getButtonControl().addTraverseListener(new TraverseListener() {
			@Override
			public void keyTraversed(TraverseEvent e) {
				
				if (e.detail == SWT.TRAVERSE_RETURN || e.keyCode == SWT.ARROW_DOWN) {
					e.detail = SWT.TRAVERSE_TAB_NEXT;
				} else if (e.keyCode == SWT.ARROW_UP) {
					e.detail = SWT.TRAVERSE_TAB_PREVIOUS;
				}
				e.doit = true;
			}
		});


works like a charm

This it's the same:

DateChooserCombo dateChooserCombo = new DateChooserCombo(shell, SWT.NONE);
Control[] control = dateChooserCombo.getChildren();
Control textInDateChooserCombo = control[0];
Control buttonInDateChooserCombo = control[1];
buttonInDateChooserCombo.addTraverseListener(new TraverseListener() {
	@Override
	public void keyTraversed(TraverseEvent e) {

		if (e.detail == SWT.TRAVERSE_RETURN || e.keyCode == SWT.ARROW_DOWN) {
			e.detail = SWT.TRAVERSE_TAB_NEXT;
		} else if (e.keyCode == SWT.ARROW_UP) {
			e.detail = SWT.TRAVERSE_TAB_PREVIOUS;
		}
		e.doit = true;
	}
});


Question is: "How in one step (one key pressing) traversing all widget DateChooserCombo ("text field & button together in DateChooserCombo)?
