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

You can place a Composite into a ScrolledComposite, this works for me. Do you need to be able to resize the ScrolledComposite? But the shell (main window) itself is fixed since it is based on a transparent image correct (or do you create those images on the fly and need the window to
reflect changes done to the image?)?

Could you please explain in more detail?

PS: I had problems to use multiple shells within an application. You might want to avoid
this.

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

    and the button will show up
