Description Flannan Lo CLA 2010-08-27 21:18:37 EDT 
Build Identifier: M20090211-1700

I have a label provider which make use of StyledString. I have a custom org.eclipse.jface.viewers.StylerString.Styler to set the style in my StyledString. In the applyStyles method, I did something like:

                Font systemFont = Display.getDefault().getSystemFont();
                FontData fd = systemFont.getFontData()[0];
                fd.setStyle(SWT.BOLD);
                textStyle.font = = new Font(Display.getDefault(), fd);

However, in my tree viewer, I don't see the bold font applied to my label.

Reproducible: Always

JFace bug ?
Comment 2 Hitesh CLA 2010-09-07 04:35:05 EDT 
Works just fine on my Win-Xp system. Can you please paste a snippet that I could use to test the bug ?

Code snippet that shows the problem.

This is a label provider I use for my tree viewer. I simplified it so that it will shows a label "Hello there!" in my tree viewer. The word "there" should have a yellow background color and bold font. However, in my tree viewer, I only see the yellow background. The text is not bold.

Above is an old build; please try this on the newer builds(I have been testing with 3.6 without any luck). The bug might have existed in 3.4 build and may have got fixed as a side-effect of another bug-fix.

Not reproducible in later Eclipse version.
