Sorry, I was on vacation last week (yay!).  Please post a snippet or better yet, enter a buzilla report with the code and we'll look at it.  Thanks.

Steve,
 
Thanks for replying.  I'm new to SWT so I always get the terminology confused.  I have a Swing frame with Swing and SWT components in the frame.  I have an AWT Button,  Swing Button, and a SWT Button.  I can only get the Swing and AWT buttons to become visible in the frame after I have double clicked on the frame or minimized it and unminimized the frame.  I cannot get the SWT Buttons to display at all.  I am runing all of this on a Win2K using  jdk 1.4.x.
 
Effectively, when I thought I had managed to get AWT and SWT to play well with each other they were not.  Only the AWT and Swing components were visible.
 
I was trying to pinpoint the visibility problem by understanding what SWT does to make a widget visible.  When does it call the paint, repaint, validate, invalidate, show, etc. and what happens?
 
Thanks for any feedback and I hope this added clarity to the nature of my question.
 
Thanks again,
 
Chris

Not sure what you are asking.  Do you really mean "resize the display" or did you mean "resize the shell"?  SWT is fully implemented in Java so you are able to view all the gory details when a shell is resized and apply your knowledge of the different operating systems.  For example, on Windows WM_SIZE is sent.  Not sure this helps.  Anyways, if you are running on XP and mixing SWT and AWT, try running without the .manifest file.  AWT doesn't work well with it.

Can anyone tell me where I can find documentation that will tell me what
happens with the SWT shell when you resize the display using the mouse?  Or
just give me a quick call sequence.

Thanks,

Chris
