Hi,

I have one problem with the "customize layout". I can't change the
default layout. I always receive thes message : No layout options to
customize on the current selection.

Here is may configuration :
Eclipse SDK 3.0.1
EMF SDK 2.0.1
GEF SDK 3.0.1
VE SDK 1.0.1

I want to use the gridLayout in a SWT composite, but with no
success...with VE.
Maybe I do something wrong...

That window customizes the "current" layout. To switch to a different
layout, you go to the property sheet and change the layout from there.

The Customize Layout dialog is not for changing the layout... just for changing
properties of the current layout or, for changing the constraints of components
that are children of the container with the layout.

If you want to change the layout, select the composite and change it's "layout"
property in the property sheet viewer.
