Hello! I have a pretty basic table with GC rendering, and am encountering a funny bug, possibly related to clipping. See the screenshot below.

index.php/fa/12130/0/

Between the Laser 6 row and Laser 7 row, the lines in both columns don't render. This is custom code, but there isn't anything that should cause this specifically.

If I select the row, the line appears.
If I scroll down to where I can't see the line, and scroll back up, it's generally fixed.
If I scroll right, then left, the line has appeared as far as I've moved left (but not all the way.) And it's never consistent.

Any ideas, or ways to better code using GC that might not have this problem?

It looks like an swt bug, I wonder if there's a rounding error
somewhere. I've tried a few changes to your snippet but none of them
are working around the problem. Please log a report with swt at
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?product=Platform&component=SWT
and include your snippet that shows the problem.

Thanks,
Grant

Thanks for checking! I logged a bug a while before posting this (https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=392924) but no one appeared to be looking at it. Is there anything else we can do to encourage someone from the SWT team to look at the bug?

Not really, other than voting for it. SWT's resources are limited, and
priority is given to bugs and work items based on their perceived
severity/benefit.

That's fair. I guess I'll try to step through it sometime in SWT's source, but I doubt I'm going to be able to fix it. Definitely not a serious bug, but it's going to annoy me while developing this software which I'm working with for the next few months.

Thanks for your help!
