Hi

I want to know how to add formatted text in a table cell.
Also, i do not want to apply the same formatting to the entire string in the
cell(as shown below)

I am using a table viewer to display search results for a search string
entered by the user. In one column of the table i am dispalying the sentence
in which the string occurred.Now i want the search string to be highlighted
in the sentence being shown in the table viewer.

For eg:
If the search string is 'CPU'

Event ID Matching String
1 CPU Utilization low
23 low CPU memory
45 low CPU utilization

I am trying to do this by using a TableEditor with a styled text widget.
But the problem with this is , the editors do not get disposed each time
search is pressed.

Is there any other way to do this?

Hi,

In 3.3 you'll have to use owner draw but I'd suggest to wait for 3.4
because there we provide StyledTextLabelProvider. See
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/org.eclipse.jface.s nippets/Eclipse%20JFace%20Snippets/org/eclipse/jface/snippet s/viewers/Snippet049StyledCellLabelProvider.java?view=markup
