— Function: gtk-tree-view-set-rules-hint (self <gtk-tree-view>) (setting bool)
— Method: set-rules-hint

This function tells GTK+ that the user interface for your application requires users to read across tree rows and associate cells with one another. By default, GTK+ will then render the tree with alternating row colors. Do not use it just because you prefer the appearance of the ruled tree; that's a question for the theme. Some themes will draw tree rows in alternating colors even when rules are turned off, and users who prefer that appearance all the time can choose those themes. You should call this function only as a semantic hint to the theme engine that your tree makes alternating colors useful from a functional standpoint (since it has lots of columns, generally).

tree-view

a <gtk-tree-view>

setting

‘#t’ if the tree requires reading across rows

— Function: gtk-tree-view-scroll-to-point (self <gtk-tree-view>) (tree_x int) (tree_y int)
— Method: scroll-to-point

Scrolls the tree view such that the top-left corner of the visible area is tree-x, tree-y, where tree-x and tree-y are specified in tree window coordinates. The tree-view must be realized before this function is called. If it isn't, you probably want to be using gtk-tree-view-scroll-to-cell.

If either tree-x or tree-y are -1, then that direction isn't scrolled.

tree-view

a <gtk-tree-view>

tree-x

X coordinate of new top-left pixel of visible area, or -1

tree-y

Y coordinate of new top-left pixel of visible area, or -1

— Function: gtk-tree-view-scroll-to-cell (self <gtk-tree-view>) (path <gtk-tree-path>) (column <gtk-tree-view-column>) (use_align bool) (row_align float) (col_align float)
— Method: scroll-to-cell

Moves the alignments of tree-view to the position specified by column and path. If column is ‘#f’, then no horizontal scrolling occurs. Likewise, if path is ‘#f’ no vertical scrolling occurs. At a minimum, one of column or path need to be non-‘#f’. row-align determines where the row is placed, and col-align determines where column is placed. Both are expected to be between 0.0 and 1.0. 0.0 means left/top alignment, 1.0 means right/bottom alignment, 0.5 means center.

If use-align is ‘#f’, then the alignment arguments are ignored, and the tree does the minimum amount of work to scroll the cell onto the screen. This means that the cell will be scrolled to the edge closest to its current position. If the cell is currently visible on the screen, nothing is done.

This function only works if the model is set, and path is a valid row on the model. If the model changes before the tree-view is realized, the centered path will be modified to reflect this change.

tree-view

A <gtk-tree-view>.

path

The path of the row to move to, or ‘#f’.

column

The <gtk-tree-view-column> to move horizontally to, or ‘#f’.

row-align

The vertical alignment of the row specified by path.

col-align

The horizontal alignment of the column specified by column.

— Function: gtk-tree-view-set-cursor (self <gtk-tree-view>) (path <gtk-tree-path>) (focus_column <gtk-tree-view-column>) (start_editing bool)
— Method: set-cursor

Sets the current keyboard focus to be at path, and selects it. This is useful when you want to focus the user's attention on a particular row. If focus-column is not ‘#f’, then focus is given to the column specified by it. Additionally, if focus-column is specified, and start-editing is ‘#t’, then editing should be started in the specified cell. This function is often followed by gtk-widget-grab-focus (tree-view) in order to give keyboard focus to the widget. Please note that editing can only happen when the widget is realized.

tree-view

A <gtk-tree-view>

path

A <gtk-tree-path>

— Method: set-cursor-on-cell

Sets the current keyboard focus to be at path, and selects it. This is useful when you want to focus the user's attention on a particular row. If focus-column is not ‘#f’, then focus is given to the column specified by it. If focus-column and focus-cell are not ‘#f’, and focus-column contains 2 or more editable or activatable cells, then focus is given to the cell specified by focus-cell. Additionally, if focus-column is specified, and start-editing is ‘#t’, then editing should be started in the specified cell. This function is often followed by gtk-widget-grab-focus (tree-view) in order to give keyboard focus to the widget. Please note that editing can only happen when the widget is realized.

— Method: set-reorderable

This function is a convenience function to allow you to reorder models that support the <gtk-drag-source-iface> and the <gtk-drag-dest-iface>. Both <gtk-tree-store> and <gtk-list-store> support these. If reorderable is ‘#t’, then the user can reorder the model by dragging and dropping rows. The developer can listen to these changes by connecting to the model's row_inserted and row_deleted signals.

This function does not give you any degree of control over the order – any reordering is allowed. If more control is needed, you should probably handle drag and drop manually.
