can i reuse components?

[emaayan]

hi.. the help may have something about it, but i'm not sure, i wold like to create a seperate composite in the designer, and then create a shell/application window that will contain it, that way i would be able to test it fully at runtime,and then use the composite elsewhere. (i'm actually trying to bind a grid to entities, and the grid should to a wizad page in eclipse).

Yes, I highly recommend reading/searching the docs first...

you'll be suprised but i actually covered that bit, the only but way i could actually use another composite is to write code manually, what the docs (in the link) you sent didn't say i could use the component selection the palette and use that.

now i only have to discover how to bind a table to Collection..

The palette docs certainly do say that...

A custom Composite is no different than any other widget. You can add it to the palette explicitly or you can access it via Choose Component.
