[platform-swt-dev] Issue faced in selection of dropdown values in table

[Prakash Kamani <prakashkamani@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I have a very peculiar issue which has been detailed below with attached
document having snapshots as well.

The issue is very specific to DROPDOWN in the table column.  We have
business case where UI is designed in such a way that first 2 columns in
the table are dropdowns.  Based on selection in first column, 2nd column
dropdown value is populated.

This aspect is working very well in WINDOWS platform where as failing in
OpenSuse 11.3 linux.

Problems faced is that when there is focus on one of the dropdown values in
first column and then user navigates to second column using mouse click and
not TAB action of keyboard, the focused dropdown value in first column does
not get auto selected and populated in the cell leading to second column
having incorrect data.

I have attached the snapshot of the UI in the document.

Have anyone faced any such issue. Need pointers on area to look for
answers.

Initial thought was that it could be PS issue for events but ruled that out
by using another application (JSP based) having dropdown value and executed
same step.
