Graeme Collis commented on PIVOT-561:
-------------------------------------
I currently develop *Form Based* applications in Swing, SWT/JFace(Eclipse RCP)
and JSF and are looking at moving it all to Pivot. So after a lot of UI work I
found the default behavior of not showing the heading non-intuitive. I would
have thought if I didn't want a heading then all I would do is not supply the
attribute as in Greg's last post.
If you look at JGoodies Styles which group sections of Forms or Eclipse
preference pages then the majority of groupings come with headings.
I also find that having the setting showFirstSectionHeading as a "Styles
property" of Form a bit obtuse. I was looking for it on Section. Though this
may just be me going through the learning cycle. The only place I seem to be
able to find information on Styles is in the Component Explorer.
