copied!<p>I tried to recreate the problem on my Vista machine and using the eclipse 3.6. But it worked for me.</p> <p><strong>Here is the output:</strong> </p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/1wxLQ.png" alt="enter image description here"></p> <p><strong>The code I have used is as follows:</strong></p> <pre><code>import org.eclipse.swt.SWT; import org.eclipse.swt.layout.GridData; import org.eclipse.swt.layout.GridLayout; import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Display; import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Label; import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Shell; import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Text; public class RightAlign { public static void main(String[] args) { Display display = new Display(); Shell shell = new Shell(display); GridLayout layout = new GridLayout(); layout.numColumns = 2; shell.setLayout(layout); shell.setText("Alignment Test"); String[] labelTexts = new String[]{"label 1:","Another label:","Another label with wrapped text:"}; for (String labelText : labelTexts) { Label fieldLabel = new Label(shell, SWT.RIGHT |SWT.WRAP | SWT.BORDER ); fieldLabel.setText(labelText); GridData labelGridData = new GridData(GridData.HORIZONTAL_ALIGN_END); labelGridData.widthHint = 100; fieldLabel.setLayoutData(labelGridData); Text textField = new Text(shell, SWT.BORDER); GridData textGridData = new GridData(GridData.FILL_HORIZONTAL); textGridData.horizontalAlignment = GridData.HORIZONTAL_ALIGN_BEGINNING; textGridData.widthHint = 248; textField.setLayoutData(textGridData); } shell.pack(); shell.open(); while (!shell.isDisposed()) { if (!display.readAndDispatch()) display.sleep(); } display.dispose(); } } </code></pre> <p>The only thing I <strong>changed</strong> is the <code>labelGridData.widthHint</code> from <code>160</code> to <code>100</code>. The longest label was <code>< 160</code> and hence was not getting wrapped. </p>
