Well, marking text never worked due to the fact that there's no way to determine what part is the text area and what is the button part (using SWT API and non-native calls) - but instead of saying that will never work I did some workaround and added code for that based on assumption of button sizes for the different platforms (Windows, Carbon, GTK), and that seems to work rather well. Those sizes can be changed by the settings in case I missed some pixels. I can only test on XP currently.
Also fixed the other problem you mentioned. I now set the date (if parsable) whenever the combo is opened, that way any entered text will be set right away and the combo will open with the right date as well. So that should truly fix any resetting of dates. I have also been slowly working on adding a long forgotten feature and decided to throw that in too in this update, which is that you can set a date for when the combo should not allow clicks prior-to or after, that way you can limit the range of allowed dates (disallowed dates are grayed out - customizable color-wise of course). This is pretty standard in other calendar selectors, and it was easy enough to add so I thought "why not". Date-range selection is still on the todo list. Oh, and the combo now supports SWT.RIGHT_TO_LEFT as well. So, all in all, changed files are (if you are planning to merge code with yours): AbstractColorManager.java AbstractSettings.java CalendarCombo.java CalendarComposite.java IColorManager.java ISettings.java Tester.java Let me know if you find any issues with all that, it seems to work well on my end from what I can test. It's all in CVS. Emil On Wed, Apr 23, 2008 at 9:11 PM, B. Haje <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > Interesting bug. I repro'd and fixed.
