[news.eclipse.platform.swt] Re: Table - Cell Border

[x_naren@xxxxxxxxxxx (Naren)]

Thanks Grant,

I use SWT on linux - motif using 3.2 and right now using lot of custom 
drawing

  1.) Cell painting -- Multiple colors / fonts in EACH cell
  2.) Cell Borders and Row / Item Separators
  3.) Table Resize - Cell Resize
  4.) Cell Height -- limitation with minimum Height

All this will take a performance hit, may be not now but later.
Iam not sure how many of these features will be revised in 3.3 or later.

Thanks

Naren
