Checkbox in CheckboxTableViewer

Hi,

Checkbox in CheckboxTableViewer should have the same appearance as Checkbox created from Button with SWT.CHECK style. Screenshots attached.

Regards,

Setya

Currently, the CHECK button uses a native browser checkbox. Implementing it using images would make it look alike on all platforms and also look the same as checkboxes in Trees and Tables.

Changing title accordingly.

To be honest I much prefer the look of CHECK button, since the look of checkbox in CheckboxTableViewer is not consistent with the rest widgets.

The problem with native checkboxes is that they look different on every platform and also depend on the user's desktop theme. Using images for checkboxes will allow us to make those images themeable later. This way, application developers can align the look of CHECK buttons with their theming.

Has this been fixed with current theming capabilities ?
