The bug that Dave is working on is this: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=166538
There is a screen shot attached. The
problem manifests when the widget is in a dialog tab pane while using Windows
XP theme. The color of the text area does match the background if the text
widget is placed directly onto the dialog surface. The code does “setEditable(false)”.
Do you think this is an SWT bug?

There is some information on this here:

If
you set the Text widget to be read-only, it *should* have the same color as the
background as far as I know.

[wtp-dev] Screen readers and description
labels vs. text areas
|
|
I am doing some clean up on UI. We have heard rumors that descriptions
that should be picked up by alternative screen readers should be contained in a
text area. Unfortunately, this sets up a background problem where the description gets a different
background than the rest of the composite.
Do text
areas need to be used for alternative screen readers to find descriptions?
I
would like to fix this problem by using a simple Label instead. Will that be
picked up by alternative screen readers?
Thanks,
David Gorton
