I tried to reproduce this with a simple SWT table but I was not
successful. Sorry.

Tested with Build id: I20140211-1100 and still an empty dialog if I
deselect the checkbox (see screenshot).

Lars, Arthur. Since you are using Ubuntu, could you try to disable
overlay scrollbars using LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=0 environment variable and
see if it fixes the problem? This sounds similar to bug 420771.

Hi Marc-Andre,

Exporting LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=0 solves the problem.

Thanks for your help.

Alexander, I opened a bug and will attempt to fix it on the Ubuntu side.

I think that might be a good idea. But I don't know how everyone feels
about the overlay-scrollbars, perhaps some people like it. I think it
should still be possible to force it on for them. So I think it would
make sense to only force it off it the environment variable is not
already defined.

I am not able to test such change so someone must step in and propose
such change. I can only point to a place where such thing might be a
good fit - take a look at
http://git.eclipse.org/c/equinox/rt.equinox.framework.git/tree/features/org.eclipse.equinox.executable.feature/library/gtk/eclipseGtkInit.c#n103
.

Work fine with Build id: N20140922-2000 if I specify export
LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=1 on Ubuntu 14.04. Has this been fixed in SWT for
Mars?

I don't think so, I still see the problem when adding an extension and
also in Installation Details > Installation History for example. You did
set SWT_GTK3=1 explicitly as well, right? That's necessary on Ubuntu
14.04 (GTK 3.10 is not white listed to be used by Eclipse).

Thanks, indeed if I use export SWT_GTK3=1, the table gets empty. This
bug is marked as fixed. Do we have a bug report for the root cause of
this issue?

There is a bug report on Ubuntu's side:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/overlay-scrollbar/+bug/1303758

Keep in mind that there are other issues about the overlay-scrollbars so
I wouldn't re-enable them by default just yet:

- Stack overflows in overlay-scrollbar:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/789123 (with patch)

- Crash in Webkit that is Ubuntu specific and seems to be a bug on the Webkit side when using the overlay-scrollbar:
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=129784 (with patch)

- Use of a scrollbar as a slider: it's not visible when it's the only child in a container, see:

Title:
  Empty tables in Eclipse using GTK3 and overlay scrollbars

Status in Eclipse:
  Fix Released
Status in Overlay Scrollbar:
  New
Status in “overlay-scrollbar” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  - Ubuntu 13.10 64 bit
  - Eclipse 4.4M6 (Luna) available here: http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?file=/eclipse/downloads/drops4/S-4.4M6-201403061200/eclipse-SDK-4.4M6-linux-gtk-x86_64.tar.gz

  start Eclipse with this command (to get menus):
  UBUNTU_MENUPROXY=0 ./eclipse &

  Go to Help > About Eclipse SDK. Click Installation Details. The tables in this dialog are all empty in all tabs (see screenshot). If Eclipse is restarted with overlay-scrollbar disabled, so:
  LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=0 UBUNTU_MENUPROXY=0 ./eclipse &

  then the tables are displayed correctly (see screenshot).
