Description Duong Nguyen CLA 2002-03-18 11:17:05 EST 
In the Property Browser non-editable properties are show at the same level as 
editable properties.  It would be useful if they were grayed at 50% of the 
editable properties.  To see the non-editable properties display the property 
browser in Eclipse and select any file, the name is a non-editable property.  
To display editable properties use the property example provided with Eclipse. 
Note: the non-editable and the editable properties are displayed in the same 
intensity.

API has been added to Table to support setting the foreground and background 
of individual rows. This has been implemented and released on windows. It has 
been implemented as well for the emulated Table (linux/motif, photon, etc.) 
but is still awaiting a code review.

The UI team can use this API to support graying of non-editable properties.

Consider as a post 2.0 enhancement
Comment 3 Nick Edgar CLA 2003-02-11 11:30:46 EST 
There are no plans for the UI team to work on this defect until higher priority 
items are addressed.

Related to bug 4584
Comment 5 Debbie Wilson CLA 2003-06-09 16:07:13 EDT 
It appears the new functionality is in TableItem and not Table
i.e. 
TableItem.setBackground(...) and
TableItem.setForeground(...)
