Sashes, also called splitters
Sashes can be horizontal or vertical;
The type is determined at construction time, and cannot be changed.
The default is vertical.
Passing SWT.HORIZONTAL or SWT.VERTICAL to the constructor determines the type:
Sash horizontalSash = new Sash(shell, SWT.HORIZONTAL); // Horizontal sash
Sash verticalSash = new Sash(shell, SWT.VERTICAL); // Vertical sash
import org.eclipse.swt.SWT;
import org.eclipse.swt.layout.FillLayout;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Display;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Sash;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Shell;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Text;
public class SashVerticalHori {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Display display = new Display();
Shell shell = new Shell(display);
shell.setText("Sash One");
shell.setLayout(new FillLayout());
new Text(shell, SWT.BORDER);
new Sash(shell, SWT.HORIZONTAL);
new Text(shell, SWT.BORDER);
shell.pack();
shell.open();
while (!shell.isDisposed()) {
if (!display.readAndDispatch()) {
display.sleep();
}
}
display.dispose();
}
