Quite possibly. On Mac OS X 10.4.11 (PPC), Java 1.5.0_13, SWT 3.3.3, I
can't get a Combo to work normally in a Table. It looks like a font
metric problem, but I may be using it incorrectly. In contrast, a CCombo
looks and acts fine:

<sscce>
import org.eclipse.swt.SWT;
import org.eclipse.swt.custom.CCombo;
import org.eclipse.swt.custom.TableEditor;
import org.eclipse.swt.layout.FillLayout;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Button;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Display;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Shell;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Table;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.TableColumn;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.TableItem;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Text;

public class SWTest {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Display display = new Display();
        Shell shell = new Shell(display);
        shell.setLayout(new FillLayout());
        Table table = new Table(shell, SWT.BORDER | SWT.MULTI);
        table.setLinesVisible(true);
        for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
          TableColumn column = new TableColumn(table, SWT.NON=

          column.setWidth(125);
        }
        for (int i = 0; i < 12; i++) {
          new TableItem(table, SWT.NONE);
        }
        TableItem[] items = table.getItems();
        for (int i = 0; i < items.length; i++) {
          TableEditor editor = new TableEditor(table);
          CCombo combo = new CCombo(table, SWT.NONE);
          combo.setText("Choose \u03b1, \u03b2, \u03b3");
          combo.add("Alpha");
          combo.add("Beta");
          combo.add("Gamma");
          editor.grabHorizontal = true;
          editor.setEditor(combo, items[i], 0);
          editor = new TableEditor(table);
          Text text = new Text(table, SWT.NONE);
          text.setText("Text");
          editor.grabHorizontal = true;
          editor.setEditor(text, items[i], 1);
          editor = new TableEditor(table);
          Button button = new Button(table, SWT.CHECK);
          button.pack();
          editor.minimumWidth = button.getSize().x;
          editor.horizontalAlignment = SWT.LEFT;
          editor.setEditor(button, items[i], 2);
        }
        shell.pack();
        shell.open();
        while (!shell.isDisposed()) {
          if (!display.readAndDispatch())
            display.sleep();
        }
        display.dispose();
    }}
