Since there is a lot of work outstanding to make swt's Cocoa port more

is a working alternative.
If SWT was to surface this functionality then the eclipse workbench would
have to decide whether to change to use it or not. It could depend on how
useable the title bar option was with large sets of tool items like eclipse
has. Also, the current coolbar allows dragging/rearranging of groups of
items, which I assume the items-in-title bar case does not.

well, I am working on that on now. I will be able to tell soon if it
does. at the moment I have the toolbar done, and I can add my own items
to it. after I am done with split view support, I will take a shot at
moving the perspective switcher. If nothing else, the code I wrote
actually works fine for standalone SWT or RCP apps... today I was
wondering about the feasibility of moving all the coolbar contents. .
.. I saw the 'work in progress' around the coolbar manager 2 in
workbench, but I am not sure how to make things really transparent (I
was not able to support toolbar items as Actions without some changes
to workbench).

I've just raised a bug report for this as suggested:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=222859
Any ideas of the likelihood of this getting addressed?

I would suggest logging a report with swt at
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?product=Platform&component=SWT
and include the link to the developer.apple.com document.

Hi Justin,
you are absolutely right! I also wondered how to achieve the unified
appearance.
There are several other little things different which causes a none
native look, e.g. the resize control resp. a Statusbar.
Does anyone know where to discuss this topics to find a way to solve
it?
Will the future cocoa swt implementation fix those issues?
Regards,
Joachim

Hi,
Toolbars on Mac OS X Leopard now have a unified appearance with the
titlebar - ie there's no visual distinction between the toolbar and
the
titlebar. The Toolbar section of this doc shows exactly what I'm
referring to:
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/UserExperience/Conceptual/OSXHIGuidelines/XHIGWindows/chapter_18_section_4.html
I'm
writing an RCP based app and the toolbar just looks so out of place,
like a Windows toolbar with a different colour palette :) Now I'm
guessing the root issue is the SWT coolbar implementation? Hence I'm
posting here.
So, is it possible for SWT to incorporate this on OS X Leopard
somehow?
This would make SWT apps look so much more 'native' on the Mac.
Perhaps
this is already on someone's todo list?!
Thanks,
Justin
