Re: [platform-swt-dev] Cannot layout new widgets on a non rectangular shell

Hi Carolyn,
            I was trying to create a custom widget where the shell could be created from a transparent image and i could at the very minimum layout a Composite on a ScrolledComposite which will be on the shell. I have so far been unable to accomplish the same probably because of the fact that Scrolled composite is not fixed in size. Any insights what is the best way to this?

Thanks,
abhi

Hi, Abhishek,
I think it would be easier in this case to just draw your label text on
the shell instead of using a control.
For example, delete the Composite and CLabel code, and add something like
the following to the Paint event, right after the drawImage:
        e.gc.drawString("Hello there", imageData.x + 10, imageData.y, true
);
Also, please note that CLabel does not support SWT.WRAP style.

Nick,
Please use SWT.NONE instead of SWT.NO when creating a Composite or Button
with none of their style bits set.

Hope this helps,
Carolyn

I don't think that this is related to the  non-rectangular shape of the
shell. Looks
more like a layout problem.

replace

-----------------------
  final Composite comp = new Composite(shell, SWT.NONE);
       comp.setBackgroundMode(SWT.INHERIT_FORCE);
       GridLayout layout = new GridLayout(1, false);
.
.
-----------------------
with

-----------------------
Composite composite = new Composite(shell, SWT.NO);
             composite.setLayout(new FillLayout());
             Button button1 = new Button(shell, SWT.NO);
       button1.setLocation(5, 5);
       button1.setSize(150, 20);
       button1.setText("hello");
-----------------------

and the button will show up
