To recognize when the user enters or exits a scrollbar with his mouse I would appreciate the possibility to add an MouseTrackListener to it or alternatively a MouseEnter/MouseExit listener.
Unfortunately currently this is not possible / supported :(

The background is, that I would like to track down mouse enter / exit events of a control / composite. I regard its scroll bar belonging to it, but SWT fires a mouse exit event for the control / composite already when I move the mouse out of its main area onto the scroll bar.
So right now I can not recognize the mouse exit for the control / composite on the sides where it has scroll bars :(

Reproducible: Always

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.
