content assist high contrast.  note the displayed text - it doesnt show that element as selected.

1) enable high contrast in Control Panel->Accessibility->Display
2) launch Eclipse
3) get into a situation where you can invoke content assist
4) use arrow keys to navigate options

expected result:  you can see the selection

result: you cannot see the selection.

If you click in the content assist dialog the selection does become visible, however.

The particular screen shot shown is using platform text content assist, though I wouldn't be surprised if we have the same issue in field assist.  Moving to platform text since that is the more critical issue.  I'll follow this bug and open another bug on field assist if necessary.

If the widget gets the focus then the selected item is visible.
Comment 3 Dani Megert CLA 2008-03-12 06:31:19 EDT 
Moving to SWT: this look like a general problem of non-focus selection in Table.

The problem is that the table is using the non-focused seleciton color which is the same as the background color.  The question is, "Is this a bug/feature in Windows or a bug in custom draw?"?
Comment 6 Steve Northover CLA 2008-04-29 11:40:50 EDT 
From testing the Explorer, it seems that the native table has the problem but the tree does not.  I haven't tested custom draw yet.
Comment 7 Steve Northover CLA 2008-04-29 12:27:58 EDT 
This bug doesn't happen on Vista (tables without focus draw using the selections color).

Carolyn and I tried this on her Windows XP and we do not see the failure anymore.
