[news.eclipse.platform.swt] showColumn() bug?

["Tim Shelley" <tim_j_shelley@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I have a tree with treecolumns. The width of the tree often means some of 
the treecolumns appear offscreen, outside of the client area.

I've tried to use showColumn() but it seems to have a bug that makes it 
difficult for cell editing where you want the column to be fully visible. If 
the columns left edge appears off screen it scrolls correctly and makes this 
column fully visible. If a columns left edge appears on the screen, but its 
right edge is off the screen, it thinks the column is visible and does not 
scroll to it (even though there may be only a few pixels of the column on 
screen).

I cannot extend the Tree class and there seems no way to work around this 
problem because the scrolling functionality of Tree seems to be all private 
or package local.

Is there a work around for this problem?

Regards,

Tim.
