Display Gwt SuggestBox cells side by side

503 Views Asked by At

GWT SuggestBox's search results are displayed in a <table> element, which (obviously) contains one <td> element per result. This causes the results to display on top of each other, like that:

Instead, I wish I could display the results side-by-side. Since the results are comprised within <td> elements, I wonder how I could possibly make each <td> to inline itself.

It would be neat to show the search results in a sort of grid (think of StackOverflow's tag suggestion widget, when you compose a question):

instead of a boring top-down list.

Any ideas?

What you describe is the DefaultSuggestionDisplay (which uses a Menu widget with one MenuItem per suggestion), but you're free to implement a SuggestionDisplay the way you want.
