Hi Thomas,

If I remember well, if you want to paint over multiple widgets you have to work with the parent composite.

For your second point...Well, (native) tables... at least, it exists but it is almost impossible to customize it. And YES, you do not have access to the table headers :'(

(on Windows for sure, I do not know for other platforms)

Did you consider having a look to Nebula Grid or Nebula NatTable ?

Regards

Laurent

Painting over/across multiple controls is not supported, right?

I have tested it now on a Table control. It looks like painting over the
header is not supported. Is it expected that in

  Rectangle clientArea = table.getClientArea();

the point (clientArea.x, clientArea.y) is inside the table header, not
in the first cell?
