Andre Dietisheim commented on JBIDE-16913:
------------------------------------------

the root problem here is that I use a StyledText to make sure that the summary is wrapping and has vertical scrollbars. StyledText has a white background by default. Trying to override it by setting the background to the same value as its parent fails in MacOSX. Groups have a darker background than the usual containers in MacOSX. Unfortunately the group (and all its children) report the lighter default background color.
I tried with transparency which is not possible in StyledText unless you use a background picture. CLabel centers the text vertically for me, has huge line spacing and wont display scroll bars. I could go for a scrolled composite and listen to resize events, setting the vertical height accordingly. The StyledText solution nevertheless is the one suggested by https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=180027#c11 and is much simpler (no need for resize-listeners). I'll therefore go for the transparent pixel background image so that the styled text has the right background color in MacOSX.
