Description Patrick Friel CLA 2005-11-11 13:40:43 EST
On a SWT scrolled composite with some controls with the following layout
[combo box] [label-text]
[label-text] [radio button][radio button]

the second radio button does not come in to focus properly in high contrast, 
large fonts mode. The text for the 2nd radio button extends off the right side 
of the viewable area and scrollbars are not shown to allow the user to view 
the text either. When not in high contrast, large fonts scrollbars do appear 
when the window is resized small enough such that the text for the radio 
button is cut off.

The one difference with the low vision settings is that the text on the first 
line is wrapped such that it is all visible at once, with normal settings the 
text is not wrapped and there are scrollbars.

You are going to have to provide some example code or at least a screen shot.

This looks to me like the window just isn't big enough to show the second button.  It would be up to Eclipse, not SWT to make it bigger.

Moving to UI for comment.

Patrick, can you supply some info on where/how this dialog I can bring up this dialog?

That'll help greatly in routing it to the correct group for a fix...thanks.

There isn't a dialog, it's a scrolled composite in a view. The composite shown in the screenshot is from our application based off of Eclipse 3.0. It'd be hard to get a code sample because the code used to create the UI seen in the screenshot is spread across multiple files and interfaces. If I have the composite open when i change the windows settings, it behaves properly, when I close and reopen it, it breaks and looks like the screenshot. Scrollbars are not appearing even though it's within a scrolled composite and there's obviously things not showing up that you should be able to scroll to.
