[news.eclipse.tools] Re: Set image and background on Label

[Veronika_Irvine@xxxxxxx]

This appears to be a bug and we are investigating.

In the meantime a work around for getting the background back is to set 
the text to an empty string as shown in this example:

public static void main(String[] args) {
        Display display = new Display();
        final Image image = new Image(display, _Scrapbook.class.getResourceAsStream ("navigator.bmp"));
        Shell shell = new Shell(display);
        final Label label = new Label(shell, SWT.BORDER);
        label.setBounds(10, 10, 200, 50);
        label.setBackground(display.getSystemColor(SWT.COLOR_RED));

        Button b = new Button(shell, SWT.PUSH);
        b.setText("clear image");
        b.setBounds(10, 80, 100, 50);
        b.addSelectionListener(new SelectionAdapter() {
                public void widgetSelected(SelectionEvent e) {
                        label.setText("");
                }
        });
 
        b = new Button(shell, SWT.PUSH);
        b.setText("set image");
        b.setBounds(120, 80, 100, 50);
        b.addSelectionListener(new SelectionAdapter() {
                public void widgetSelected(SelectionEvent e) {
                        label.setImage(image);
                }
        });
        shell.open();
        while (shell != null && !shell.isDisposed()) {
                if (!display.readAndDispatch())
                        display.sleep(); 
        } 
        image.dispose();
}
