Stuff in "SWT Layouts" is standalone?
I am working on a new project, a new visual class.
I have a tab on the bottom half of eclipse.
i have lots of tabs actually,
there's Problems, and Javadoc, and Console among others.
(and there is SWT Layouts)
i want to have form layout for the whole class.
i figured i'd add a composite that will cover the whole window
i want to add a button to my class,
should stay at top left.
i then want to create a composite. The composite should
be on the top right.
i want to have a grid layout for the composite
add 3 buttons to the composite
thats all i want to do.
I've been at it for quite some time, and i have nothing.
i suspect the tab "swt layouts" has nothing to do with
the stuff going up on top...there's just no connection.
anybody could tell me in general terms what i need to do?
anything would be appreciated

Victor,
I'm not certain, but it sounds to me like you're confusing the SWT
Examples plug-in's SWT Layouts view with the functionality of the VE.
They are completely independent.
Changing and manipulation of layouts in the VE are done through the
Properties view and the Customize Layout dialog. See the VE
documentation for details. The latest version of the VE does not
support working with FormLayout. GridLayout's support is quite good
though... can you see about making your design based on GridLayout instead?

Thank you for your response.
I came to suspect the 'SWT Layouts' tab got there after i had
clicked on 'view examples' or something. I look at the online
help all the time, and at some point i was directed to the
'examples'
You say FormLayout is not supported, to try gridLayout. Thank you,
as I sit here thinking, i'm thinking this will probably work for
me. The online documentation also mentioned something about formLayout
and the VE, not being 100% compatible. I figured it would work for my
very simple application.
I will let you know how things turned out.
