Hello everyone,

I have a simple problem which is to have a flat no space toolbar, the idea is to have something like this "http://book.javanb.com/swt-the-standard-widget-toolkit/images/0321256638/graphics/08fig01.gif"

Any idea on how to do it, I created a Renderer for custom behavior the createWidget method looks like this.

public Object createWidget(final MUIElement theElement, Object theParent) {

if (!(theElement instanceof MToolBar) || !(theParent instanceof Composite) || ((Composite) theParent).isDisposed()
|| PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow() == null) {
logger.error("Cannot create toolBar Banner widget");
return null;
}

IWorkbenchWindow aWorkbenchWindow = PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow();
aWorkbenchWindow.addPerspectiveListener(internalPerspectiveListener);

Object widget = super.createWidget(theElement, theParent);

ToolBar aToolBar = (ToolBar) theElement.getWidget();

//aToolBar.setLayout(new TrimBarBannerLayout(true));

ACTIVE_WINDOW_TOOLBAR.put(aWorkbenchWindow, aToolBar);

return widget;
}

Hi Daniel,
the PlatformUI is from the old Eclipse platform. But perhaps the
RoundedToolbar from Opal project is what you are lookung for (see
https://code.google.com/a/eclipselabs.org/p/opal/wiki/RoundedToolbar).
This widget could be placed on a simple part. I've used a similar
solution for a coolbar panel.

Greets,
Ralf.
