I had this real head-scratcher layout problem. Couldn't figure out what could possibly be going wrong. Then I remembered reading about Picasso a few days earlier. Gave it a try and it let me figure out that I wasn't going crazy... I was looking at a bug in Linux SWT. What a relief!<br/><br/>https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=241840 Excellent work, guys! I had this real head-scratcher layout problem.

Part of its beauty is that it is "caveman technology". Of course, Chris' work to integrate it into every launched workbench makes it accessible to everyone. I love the way that everyone's dirty laundry is on view for all to see. :-) But, joking aside, many SWT layouts can benefit from being reviewed using this tool.

In cases where you are trying to analyze another product or softwares UI... a UI designer is hard... Picasso gives you a way to do this.<br/><br/>btw Eugene, do you get a dollar for everytime you mention SWT Designer :P? (I had to say it ;p) yes, a UI designer can help in a lot of cases.

For example <a HREF="http://www.jroller.com/eu/entry/maven_pom_editor_screen_mockups" REL="nofollow">this</a> UI is created completely in SWT Designer, so editing all the padding and laying out components was real pleasure.

I've found similar handy debugging CSS, I imagine the same would be true for Eclipse.<br/><br/>As you know, for e4 EricM has been working on a tool which introspects the UI to produce a model. Seems there's a tie in there (e.g. your debug utility could be a transform on his model). Cool. I’ve found similar handy debugging CSS, I imagine the same would be true for Eclipse.
