GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 164464
GTK_SELECTION_BROWSE_CELL mode
Last modified: 2005-06-21 00:14:23 UTC
scenario: The tree_selection mode of my tree is GTK_SELECTION_NONE all my cell-renderers are not editable. This way I get a gray rectangle denoting the current row. I still can use cursor left, right to move between columns, but there is no gray rectangle around the columns. Is there anything I can do to highlight the column that has the foucs too. What I am looking for is something like Pos Col1 Col2 Col3 +---+ 0 | a | x y +----+---+---------+ |1 | b | c f | +----+---+---------+ 2 | d | z u | | 3 | e | v w +---+ Basically I want the user to browse around, where one cell is always selected (GTK_SELECTION_BROWSE unfortunately selects whole rows) and via key-release-event I change the data in the cell. The active cell should not be moveable to the "Pos." column (see previous mail about "not focuasable treeview columns).
Sounds like you want a table widget, really
I am now trying to use GtkSheet from gtkextra2. So I don't mind this issue beeing closed. On the other hand I belive both kind of widgets (table & list) have a lot in common and this could serve as a reminder to think about merging stuff.
Ok, not keeping this one open then. We do have a bug for a model-view table widget somewhere...
