I don't know anything about SWT but in the docs the couple widgets I saw had a setSize method. Justin I also think you should get rid of the tabs. The more automatic the better. | |

| Apr 10, 2017 at 22:01 | comment | added | Devin | @Justin, I don't know what SWT is, but can't you simply leave the size as fluid? Otherwise, simply measure the current size you have + the select field, then use that as fixed size to contain everything. While not very pretty, that will also help to let users understand there will be more content in the blank space | |
| Apr 10, 2017 at 19:49 | comment | added | Justin | I was using the tabs because I couldn't figure out how to get SWT to update the size of the form when I changed GUI elements, so I guess now I need to go figure that out. | |
