We have fairly stable code that handles Tree auto-scrolling and item expansion during Drag & Drop. I think we should offer this behaviour as a feature that can be selected by a Style bit. e.g. SWT.DROP_ENSURE_VISIBILITY (ideas for good names anyone??). Same thing with Table or other widgets that don't have native support for auto-scroll. Clearly we can't just drop the code in place, but it would be a good start. [I'm thinking of TreeDropFeedbackListener in the org.eclipse.swt.examples.fileviewer package. It has some unresolved issues on Linux -- incidentally the same ones as the Eclipse Navigator does.] Currently there is some duplication in the users of our Tree class, and therefore a potential for bugs in the implementation, cross-platform hiccups, and UI look-and-feel style inconsistencies. NOTES: McQ (26/06/2001 9:02:23 AM) - It would be good to put this in, since we didn't manage to do it for KH like we said we would last release. JB (27/08/2001 6:34:40 PM) Can't do this before leaving SWT team. There is code to implement the feedback using only public API in the FileViewer example but this really wants to be implemented as a an extension to our DND feedback mechanism. Have talked to VI about this.
