Bug 552652 - [Progress] Progress bars flicker on Windows (e4)

Progress view will often dispose and recreate progress items. E.g. on
some refreshes or any time an element is added. The new progress bar is
initialized with zero progress and then set to the current job progress.
On Windows if a progress bar is set to a higher value an animation is
enforced. Therefore every time a new item is added any existing progress
bar jumps to empty and animates back to its previous value resulting in
flickering.
This is usually no problem on Linux because the jumps from current
progress to zero progress back to current progress are not animated and
therefore not visible.

Project description:

Platform UI provides the basic building blocks for user interfaces built with Eclipse.

Some of these form the Eclipse Rich Client Platform (RCP) and can be used for arbitrary rich client applications, while others are specific to the Eclipse IDE. The Platform UI codebase is built on top of the Eclipse Standard Widget Toolkit (SWT), which is developed as an independent project.
