ScrolledComposite height with SWT.WRAP Text widgets [message #128522] Sun, 19 April 2009 08:19 Go to next message

Hi all,

I have such a case: There is ScrolledComposite, inside it there is
Composite containing list of Text widgets. When these Text widgets have
SWT.WRAP set, height of inner Composite isn't computed right and it's
unable reach some elements of the list. When SWT.WRAP is removed and
text isn't wrapped then everything is all right.

* is it a bug? (RAP 1.1)
* how could I manually compute correct minimal height when SWT.WRAP is set?

Best regards

Jiri

To find out whether this is a bug, you'd have to try your snippet with
SWT. If it works there, but not in RAP, then it is probably a bug. The
ScrolledComposite is a complicated beast and it's easily screwed up.
Thus, you should also have a look at the SWT snippets [1] and try the
same thing with SWT.

Your problem could be related to bug 256133: [TextSizeDetermination]
Re-layouting for controls in a ScrolledComposite
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=256133

Does the problem persist when you reload the application in the browser?
Do the Text widgets contain a fixed default text?

You could also experiment with calling layout() on the Composite at some
point in time, but you'll have to do this after the text has been set
AND the results of the text size determination have been received, i.e.
in a subsequent request.

Hope this helps, Ralf
