Description Thomas Schindl CLA 2007-04-10 10:59:30 EDT
it is currently alread possible to select the text in a combo-box by calling:
--------------8<--------------
combo.setSelection(new Point(0,combo.getText().length() + 1));
--------------8<--------------

But this doesn't feel like real API but one must have deep knowledge for of SWT to know this.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
