Description Mickael Istria

2020-08-03 04:21:33 EDT

I'm trying to use a system color to initialize a ColorDefinition from CSS, as advised in bug 564380 comment 28. Unsuccessfully, because the execution chain for initialization of ColorDefinitions doesn't reach the part that delegates to SWT system colors.

Mickael, please add to the N&N. This is a very interesting feature for theme designers.
