Table Viewer Vs Nebula Grid Viewer [message #326351]

Hello,

In our RCP application, we already have implmented Nebula grid viewer. As
it is still in Alpha stage, we thought we will hang on to the stable
Eclipse 3.3's Table Viewer. For that I have to make sure that all
features(we have implemented with Nebula grid viewer's help) provided in
nebula grid viewer is available in Table Viewer.

So, I just need to know, is cell selection possible in Table Viewer as in
Grid table viewer?

One more thing I found in Table Viewer is that, I just cant set the
visible state of a column in Table Viewer as in Nebuila grid viewer, which
looks curious on navigation thorugh hidden columns! And also the column
count will always be the same with or without hidden columns! Isn't it?

Regards,
Supreetha

Well this is a limitation you'll be facing in 3.3 code base but it is
gone in 3.4.

Hello Tom,

Thanks for the reply... Sorry, i missed to ask whether multi cell
selection is possible in table Viewer. We are providing cut/copy/paste
operations in grid, and user can select single cell or multi cells in a
column or from various columns and cut/copy the contents from them. So is
this feature supported in 3.3 Table Viewer?

Regards,

Supreetha

No not yet it was on my list for 3.4 but I failed because of Time
constraints.
