Compound Custom Widget Focus [message #550962]

In SWT the TAB and SHIFT-TAB navigation in compound custom widgets is just like any other control, it gains the focus and puts it in the inner control.
But in RWT this behavior is different when a compound custom widget gains the focus, the one that is receiving it, is the container and it doesn't pass the focus to the inner control.

I create a bug where this issue is described better:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=321274

But there hasn't been an answer to this. Any ideas?

Hi Jesus,

your bug is valid and we'll take care of it. As a workaround, you can
use the style flag SWT.NO_FOCUS as explained in the bug.

Best regards, Ralf
