Re: [platform-swt-dev] Suggest to add a new widget in SWT
|
ScrolledComposite seems to be an interesting wheel ...
Could you said where I can help on this, I can't found anything ont it in
help contents of my eclipse 3.0.0 M7,
nor inside swt.jar package file.
The only ScrolledComposite help find is
org.eclipse.swt.custom.ScrolledComposite ones...
And this help doesn't speak about any overview this widget have...
Thanks for further informations on this, I'm sure both widgets can share
lots of things ...
Arnaud.

Is this a case of reinventing the wheel?
@see org.eclipse.swt.widgets.ScrolledComposite
As far as "overview" window, I'd be curious to know what you are doing. It
sounds graphical in nature, and it also sounds like it might not work on
some platforms. If you are taking a screen-capture of the control which is
being scrolled, then that control's children may not paint correctly if
they are clippsed by the parent's client area.
GEF provides scrolling calculatings, coordinate transformation, and an
overview window. See the GEF homepage on eclipse.org.

Please respond to widget in SWT
platform-swt-dev
I don't know java.awt.ScrollPane but my suggestion is to have the same
thing
in SWT. I will post a request in Bugzilla.
Our widget provides some friendly services as followings:
- shows automatically scrollbars when they are necessary.
- translates mouse coordinates in content are.
- opens an overview popup window with a button at the right, bottom corner.
to accelerate scrolling on very large content area.
- should be derived to specialize paint, mouse, keyboard event handlers.
Regards,
Eric.

Sounds something like java.awt.ScrollPane. What services does it
provide over using a Composite widget with its built-in scrollbars?
If you have a widget or other code you would like to contribute, the
best thing would be to create a feature request in Bugzilla and attach
your code, docs, etc. to it.
