Question

I am using following line on my Eclipse RCP project:

item.setForeground(3, dis.getSystemColor(SWT.COLOR_RED));

Is there any reason that I don’t get the color changed? I just one particular cell to have red foreground.

Answer 1

If you are using Eclise-rcp try this one

Display display =PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getDisplay();
Color red = display.getSystemColor(SWT.COLOR_RED);
YourTable.getItem(i).setForeground(red);

Note: i is the index of the table item which you want to change the color.

if you want to change the color of particular cell of particular item the code is

YourTable.getItem(i).setForeground(2, red); // 2 means that you column on index 2 will be colored
