Description Michael Barkhouse CLA 2005-05-19 13:04:51 EDT 
I've only seen this error on SUSE Linux. It does not happen on Windows. I have 
not tried any other OS.

I've created a subclass of org.eclipse.jface.dialogs.TitleAreaDialog. I want to 
set the text in the top area. The text is three lines long, so not all of it is 
visible at the same time. If I set the text using the setMessage method, the 
text appears bottom aligned. I.E. The first line is scrolled up and only 
partially visible. If I set the text using setErrorMessage the text is 
displayed top aligned. I.E. The bottom line is only partially visible.

The alignment of the text should be the same regardless of whether I'm showing 
an error or not. I suggest always using top alignment.

The TitleAreaDialog currently only handles 2 lines - the third line behaves
differently on every platform.
