[news.eclipse.tools] Scrollable panes for Wizard Pages

[mhartley@xxxxxxxxxx (Matthew Hartley)]

Hi,

I wanted to say thank you for your responses regarding the Wizard
questions I had asked.  I decided that the best way to go was to have all
the controls set on the page and then use setVisible to show the controls
I want.  However, there may be times where I need more controls than fits
on the page.  I could increase the size of the page or add more pages,
but, I would rather have a scrollable pane that contains my controls, so
that the user only has to use one page and scroll down on any controls
that need to be filled in.  I have tried using the Composite class setting
style to V_SCROLL, but this doesn't scroll the controls added to the
composite.  I have also tried using the class ScrolledComposite, but, I
can't seem to get that to work properly.  When using this class I used the
setContent() method but I kept getting a blank wizard page.  In any case,
I would like to have a scrollable pane, to scroll a list of controls.  Do
you guys have any idea on how I can do this? Or, can that NOT be done?

Also, thanks for your speedy response on my last questions : )
