GTK+ Forums

Hi everyone,

I am currently building an interface in glade that contains a treeview that is hooked up to a liststore object.

I would like it to behave like the "Add and remove columns" widget under the general tab when editing the liststore properties.

One column would allow the user to enter some text. The next column would allow the user to select an option out of a combo box. The data in the combo box will be populated during run time.

What column types should be chosen so that I have a Text Entry and a Combo box in my columns?

I found GtkCellRendercombo, but it does not seem to be in column type. I am also unsure what type to use for text entry.

Any help appreciated :)

Hi.

I'm not sure what exactly are you trying to ask here, so I'll just describe how to build tree view like the one in glade tree view editor.

You'll need to create GtkTreeView and add two GtkTreeViewColumns into it. Into first column, you need to pack GtkCellRenderCombo, second column should have packed in GtkCellRendererText.

Underlying data storage will need to be composed from two GtkTreeModels: one for tree view itself and one for combo box cell renderer. Model for tree view will need to have (at least) two columns, both of type G_TYPE_STRING. Model for combo cell renderer will only need to have one G_TYPE_STRING column.

All that is left to do now is to connect "text" property of both cell renderers to appropriate columns in tree view model and set second model using g_object_set() to "model" property of combo cell renderer.
