[news.eclipse.tools] Re: Scrollable Composite for multipage editor

[Veronika_Irvine@xxxxxxx]

You should not set a layout on the ScrolledComposite - this will just 
cause a lot of flashing when you resize.

What is happening is first the layout will try to position the children 
and then the ScrolledComposite will re-position the children.  Hence the 
flashing.

I think the code that fixed your problem was :

        GridLayout myLayout = new GridLayout();
        myLayout.numColumns = 2;
        cp.setLayout(myLayout);


In the future, I will probably change the class ScrolledComposite to not 
allow users to set the layout because this just causes problems so please 
don't rely on it.
