[news.eclipse.platform.swt] Re: size of a composite

[Friederich Kupzog <friederich@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Karei,

this depends on when you are calling these functions. If you call them 
before the shell is layouted, you get 0. You can only make use of these 
functions when the widgets are layouted.

Hope that helped,
Friederich
