Hi, I'm using Eclipse and I would like to remove scrollbars from the editor. (I usually partition my screen with multiple opened editors. I want to save space.).

Is there an easy way?

I'm using Windows 7.

A: 

That an oldie:

  • bug 27096 mentions the presence of scrollbar for StyleText since 2003, and is a duplicate for:
  • bug 34928 - Editors show scrollbars even when source has just 1 line with 1 char (also 2003)

Simply put, the StyledText widget has no API to show scrollbars only when necessary.
This is a SWT limitation.
