[nebula-dev] Nebula Examples Plugin and Background Color

[Jeremy Dowdall <jeremyd@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

I'm in the process of getting the CDateTime example tab together and am 
seeing some strange behavior with the background colors.  Basically, I'm 
not able to set background colors on anything unless it, or its parent 
composite, has the SWT.BORDER style set.  This is for my widget as well 
as the control area composite itself - the checkbox to set the 
background color to teal is working correctly, but the color does not 
change unless this composite is created with a border... ?

This is on Eclipse 3.3M4, Ubuntu Edgy, clearlooks and human themes 
(haven't tried others), and does not happen with a stand alone SWT 
snippet (well, if I knew what was doing this, I could probably make a 
snippet :) )

I'm wondering if this may also be what Otto is running into over on the 
SWT Dev list...

Anyone else seeing this or have suggestions?  thanks!
