Re: [platform-swt-dev] Windows Table: no more space at the top (regressi

[Steve Northover <Steve_Northover@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The manifest file is now a binary resource
that is built into the SWT dll.  Prior to 3.2, to get the XP look
and feel, appliations needed to add it to the place where javaw.exe was
contained.  In 3.2, you can't stop the manifest from being applied
unless you hack OS.java, which is not recomended.  I'm not sure what
to tell you other than 99.9% of the world wants to run with the manifest
and that we won't be going back to the 3.1 approach (which was a pain).

Subject	[platform-swt-dev] Windows Table: no more space at the top        (regression?)

Hello list

I've a problem with org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Table: Since version 3.232,
there's no more space between the ToolItem at the top and the top of the
Table.
With version 3.229 and 3.139, there used to be about 2px at the top and
2px at the left of the TableItems. Now theres 0px at the top and about
5px at the left... Looks horrible to me.

I tracked the problem down to org.eclipse.swt.internal.win32.OS. There's
now the "Load the manifest to force the XP Theme" block that
seems to
change the UI. If I uncomment that, I've my good old indentings again.
Can someone explain me which manifest is loaded and what I can do
against it?

BTW: I need the space at the top for drag and drop; I paint a line where
an item might end up.


thanks
Marco
