Creating Wizard Pages using VE (Newbie) [message #106729] Fri, 16 September 2005 07:33 Go to next message

I thought it would be a good idea to use VE to create some wizard pages for
a plugin I am creating (dont see the point of now manually laying out
components for simple examples). I havent used VE before but cannot find
any explicit information on how VE can be used to create a wizard page.
There was some earlier discussion and a mention of using a composite but I
havent enough background fill in the blanks. Anyone have links to use VE in
this context?

Thanks

Alan

One simple way, is to create a customed Composite (Create a Visual class extending Composite).

In the createControl() for your WizardPage


...
Composite content = new MyCustomComposite(parent, ...);
