Build Identifier: The border has to be visible in case of a form is used in a wizard, no borders around the table would confuse the user. This problem also exists in current Eclipse Scout (3.6-trunk). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: See attached sample project: 1. Start server and client (user/pw: admin / manager) 2. You see three menus below "Tools" ("Extras" in german) 3. "Test" starts the TestForm, a form containing a date field and a simple table 4. "Test2" starts the Test2Form, a form containing an AbstractWrappedFormField which contains the TestForm from above 5. "TestWizard" starts the TestWizard, a wizard using the TestForm in it's first step >> Using the first menu the border of the table is visible while using the others will make use of an AbstractWrappedFormField which makes the border disappear.

Note: SWT is not affected by this issue
Created attachment 198110 [details] patch to solve this issue as discussed by phone, this patch removes the code which hides the border of tablefields if the mainbox has no border. this is the case when a form is the inner form of an wrapperformfield which disables the mainbox border.
Thanks for the analysis. You found the right spot. But as mentioned in an earlier patch, just removing existing functionality to reach the personal goal is in most cases not the right solution. Your patch would break major existing functionality regarding look and feel of table pages and top level tables. In order to distinguish between inner forms and top level forms we can use getOuterForm as an additional check in SwingScoutTableField // top level table in top-level form has no border --> if (getScoutObject().getForm().getOuterForm() == null) { if (getScoutObject().getParentField() instanceof IGroupBox) { IGroupBox g = (IGroupBox) getScoutObject().getParentField(); if (g.isMainBox() && !g.isBorderVisible()) { JScrollPane scrollPane = newTableComposite.getSwingScrollPane(); scrollPane.setBorder(new EmptyBorder(0, 0, 0, 0)); } } --> }
shipped with scout 3.7.1
