Is this possible? :D Long time since I've looked at Java.
Does Eclipse have a SWT visual designer?

yes. SWT is a better choice compared to Swing if you want to do Java way.

There is. http://www.eclipse.org/vep/ . But I haven't seen much progress in a long time.

If you don't mind the strange look and feel (the GTK one have a lot of glitches) of Swing (and it's huge memory usage), use Swing, as it comes with the JRE.
Else, you can try JavaGNOME (for GTK+) or QtJambi (for Qt).
