Re: [eclipse-dev] Table not being drawn properly in a view?

[Carolyn MacLeod <Carolyn_MacLeod@xxxxxxxxxx>]

First, create an swt snippet that shows
the problem.
You can use the following snippet as
a starting point:
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/%7Echeckout%7E/platform-swt-home/snippits/snippet144.html
Then, please ask your question on the
SWT newsgroup:

>> news://news.eclipse.org/eclipse.platform.swt

If you cannot show the problem with
an swt snippet, then please ask your question on the eclipse.platform newsgroup.

I tried your suggestion of calling dispose with the
following sequence:

results.clearAll();
TableColumn[] tc =results.getColumns();
for (int i=0,m=tc.length;i++) {
    tc.dispose();
}
results.clearAll();
//add contents
.
.
.
results.redraw();
parent.pack();

In this case the original problem still exists, the table does not  
properly resize its self AND even though the table is declared as  
virtual and the data is being cleared there are numerous empty lines at
 
the beginning of the table.   Am I missing something here?
