Implemented Interfaces

GtkTreeView implements AtkImplementorIface, GtkBuildable and GtkScrollable.

Includes

#include <gtk/gtk.h>

Description

Widget that displays any object that implements the GtkTreeModel interface.

Please refer to the tree widget conceptual overview for an overview of all the objects and data types related to the tree widget and how they work together.

Several different coordinate systems are exposed in the GtkTreeView API. These are:

Coordinate systems in GtkTreeView API:

  • Widget coordinates: Coordinates relative to the widget (usually widget->window).

  • Bin window coordinates: Coordinates relative to the window that GtkTreeView renders to.

  • Tree coordinates: Coordinates relative to the entire scrollable area of GtkTreeView. These coordinates start at (0, 0) for row 0 of the tree.

Several functions are available for converting between the different coordinate systems. The most common translations are between widget and bin window coordinates and between bin window and tree coordinates. For the former you can use gtk_tree_view_convert_widget_to_bin_window_coords() (and vice versa), for the latter gtk_tree_view_convert_bin_window_to_tree_coords() (and vice versa).

GtkTreeView as GtkBuildable

The GtkTreeView implementation of the GtkBuildable interface accepts GtkTreeViewColumn objects as <child> elements and exposes the internal GtkTreeSelection in UI definitions.

Functions

GtkTreeViewColumnDropFunc ()

gboolean
(*GtkTreeViewColumnDropFunc) (GtkTreeView *tree_view,
                              GtkTreeViewColumn *column,
                              GtkTreeViewColumn *prev_column,
                              GtkTreeViewColumn *next_column,
                              gpointer data);

Function type for determining whether column can be dropped in a particular spot (as determined by prev_column and next_column ). In left to right locales, prev_column is on the left of the potential drop spot, and next_column is on the right. In right to left mode, this is reversed. This function should return TRUE if the spot is a valid drop spot. Please note that returning TRUE does not actually indicate that the column drop was made, but is meant only to indicate a possible drop spot to the user.

Parameters

tree_view

A GtkTreeView

 

column

The GtkTreeViewColumn being dragged

 

prev_column

A GtkTreeViewColumn on one side of column

 

next_column

A GtkTreeViewColumn on the other side of column

 

data

user data.

[closure]

Returns

TRUE, if column can be dropped in this spot

                               gpointer search_data);

A function used for checking whether a row in model matches a search key string entered by the user. Note the return value is reversed from what you would normally expect, though it has some similarity to strcmp() returning 0 for equal strings.

Parameters

model

the GtkTreeModel being searched

 

column

the search column set by gtk_tree_view_set_search_column()

 

key

the key string to compare with

 

iter

a GtkTreeIter pointing the row of model that should be compared with key .

Returns the amount, in pixels, of extra indentation for child levels in tree_view .

Parameters

tree_view

a GtkTreeView.

 

Returns

the amount of extra indentation for child levels in tree_view . A return value of 0 means that this feature is disabled.

Since 2.12


gtk_tree_view_get_show_expanders ()

gboolean
gtk_tree_view_get_show_expanders (GtkTreeView *tree_view);

Returns whether or not expanders are drawn in tree_view .

Parameters

tree_view

a GtkTreeView.

 

Returns

TRUE if expanders are drawn in tree_view , FALSE otherwise.

Since 2.12


gtk_tree_view_set_level_indentation ()

void
gtk_tree_view_set_level_indentation (GtkTreeView *tree_view,
                                     gint indentation);

Sets the amount of extra indentation for child levels to use in tree_view in addition to the default indentation. The value should be specified in pixels, a value of 0 disables this feature and in this case only the default indentation will be used. This does not have any visible effects for lists.

Parameters

tree_view

a GtkTreeView

 

indentation

the amount, in pixels, of extra indentation in tree_view .

gtk_tree_view_set_rules_hint ()

void
gtk_tree_view_set_rules_hint (GtkTreeView *tree_view,
                              gboolean setting);

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).

Parameters

tree_view

a GtkTreeView

 

setting

TRUE if the tree requires reading across rows

 

gtk_tree_view_get_rules_hint ()

gboolean
gtk_tree_view_get_rules_hint (GtkTreeView *tree_view);

gtk_tree_view_set_column_drag_function ()

void
gtk_tree_view_set_column_drag_function
                               (GtkTreeView *tree_view,
                                GtkTreeViewColumnDropFunc func,
                                gpointer user_data,
                                GDestroyNotify destroy);

Sets a user function for determining where a column may be dropped when dragged. This function is called on every column pair in turn at the beginning of a column drag to determine where a drop can take place. The arguments passed to func are: the tree_view , the GtkTreeViewColumn being dragged, the two GtkTreeViewColumn s determining the drop spot, and user_data . If either of the GtkTreeViewColumn arguments for the drop spot are NULL, then they indicate an edge. If func is set to be NULL, then tree_view reverts to the default behavior of allowing all columns to be dropped everywhere.

Parameters

tree_view

A GtkTreeView.

 

func

A function to determine which columns are reorderable, or NULL.

[allow-none]

user_data

User data to be passed to func , or NULL.

[allow-none]

destroy

Destroy notifier for user_data , or NULL.

gtk_tree_view_scroll_to_point ()

void
gtk_tree_view_scroll_to_point (GtkTreeView *tree_view,
                               gint tree_x,
                               gint tree_y);

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 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.

Parameters

tree_view

a GtkTreeView

 

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

 

gtk_tree_view_scroll_to_cell ()

void
gtk_tree_view_scroll_to_cell (GtkTreeView *tree_view,
                              GtkTreePath *path,
                              GtkTreeViewColumn *column,
                              gboolean use_align,
                              gfloat row_align,
                              gfloat col_align);

Moves the alignments of tree_view to the position specified by column and path . If column is NULL, then no horizontal scrolling occurs. Likewise, if path is NULL no vertical scrolling occurs. At a minimum, one of column or path need to be non-NULL. 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 FALSE, 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.

Parameters

tree_view

A GtkTreeView.

 

path

The path of the row to move to, or NULL.

[allow-none]

column

The GtkTreeViewColumn to move horizontally to, or NULL.

[allow-none]

use_align

whether to use alignment arguments, or FALSE.

 

row_align

The vertical alignment of the row specified by path .

 

col_align

The horizontal alignment of the column specified by column .

 

gtk_tree_view_set_cursor ()

                          gboolean start_editing);

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 NULL, then focus is given to the column specified by it. Additionally, if focus_column is specified, and start_editing is TRUE, 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.

If path is invalid for model , the current cursor (if any) will be unset and the function will return without failing.

Parameters

path

A GtkTreePath

 

focus_column

A GtkTreeViewColumn, or NULL.

[allow-none]

start_editing

TRUE if the specified cell should start being edited.

                                  gboolean start_editing);

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 NULL, then focus is given to the column specified by it. If focus_column and focus_cell are not NULL, 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 TRUE, 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.

If path is invalid for model , the current cursor (if any) will be unset and the function will return without failing.

gtk_tree_view_set_reorderable ()

void
gtk_tree_view_set_reorderable (GtkTreeView *tree_view,
                               gboolean reorderable);

This function is a convenience function to allow you to reorder models that support the GtkTreeDragSourceIface and the GtkTreeDragDestIface. Both GtkTreeStore and GtkListStore support these. If reorderable is TRUE, 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. The reordering is implemented by setting up the tree view as a drag source and destination. Therefore, drag and drop can not be used in a reorderable view for any other purpose.

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.

Parameters

tree_view

A GtkTreeView.

 

reorderable

TRUE, if the tree can be reordered.

 

gtk_tree_view_get_reorderable ()

gboolean
gtk_tree_view_get_reorderable (GtkTreeView *tree_view);

Retrieves whether the user can reorder the tree via drag-and-drop. See gtk_tree_view_set_reorderable().

Parameters

tree_view

a GtkTreeView

 

Returns

TRUE if the tree can be reordered.


gtk_tree_view_get_path_at_pos ()

gboolean
gtk_tree_view_get_path_at_pos (GtkTreeView *tree_view,
                               gint x,
                               gint y,
                               GtkTreePath **path,
                               GtkTreeViewColumn **column,
                               gint *cell_x,
                               gint *cell_y);

Finds the path at the point (x , y ), relative to bin_window coordinates (please see gtk_tree_view_get_bin_window()). That is, x and y are relative to an events coordinates. x and y must come from an event on the tree_view only where event->window == gtk_tree_view_get_bin_window(). It is primarily for things like popup menus. If path is non-NULL, then it will be filled with the GtkTreePath at that point. This path should be freed with gtk_tree_path_free(). If column is non-NULL, then it will be filled with the column at that point. cell_x and cell_y return the coordinates relative to the cell background (i.e. the background_area passed to gtk_cell_renderer_render()). This function is only meaningful if tree_view is realized. Therefore this function will always return FALSE if tree_view is not realized or does not have a model.

For converting widget coordinates (eg. the ones you get from GtkWidget::query-tooltip), please see gtk_tree_view_convert_widget_to_bin_window_coords().

Parameters

tree_view

A GtkTreeView.

 

x

The x position to be identified (relative to bin_window).

 

y

The y position to be identified (relative to bin_window).

 

path

A pointer to a GtkTreePath pointer to be filled in, or NULL.

[out][allow-none]

column

A pointer to a GtkTreeViewColumn pointer to be filled in, or NULL.

[out][transfer none][allow-none]

cell_x

A pointer where the X coordinate relative to the cell can be placed, or NULL.

[out][allow-none]

cell_y

A pointer where the Y coordinate relative to the cell can be placed, or NULL.

[out][allow-none]

Returns

TRUE if a row exists at that coordinate.


gtk_tree_view_is_blank_at_pos ()

gboolean
gtk_tree_view_is_blank_at_pos (GtkTreeView *tree_view,
                               gint x,
                               gint y,
                               GtkTreePath **path,

                               gint *cell_x,
                               gint *cell_y);

Determine whether the point (x , y ) in tree_view is blank, that is no cell content nor an expander arrow is drawn at the location. If so, the location can be considered as the background. You might wish to take special action on clicks on the background, such as clearing a current selection, having a custom context menu or starting rubber banding.

The x and y coordinate that are provided must be relative to bin_window coordinates. That is, x and y must come from an event on tree_view where event->window == gtk_tree_view_get_bin_window().

For converting widget coordinates (eg. the ones you get from GtkWidget::query-tooltip), please see gtk_tree_view_convert_widget_to_bin_window_coords().

The path , column , cell_x and cell_y arguments will be filled in likewise as for gtk_tree_view_get_path_at_pos(). Please see gtk_tree_view_get_path_at_pos() for more information.

Parameters

tree_view

A GtkTreeView

 

x

The x position to be identified (relative to bin_window)

gtk_tree_view_get_cell_area ()

void
gtk_tree_view_get_cell_area (GtkTreeView *tree_view,
                             GtkTreePath *path,
                             GtkTreeViewColumn *column,
                             GdkRectangle *rect);

Fills the bounding rectangle in bin_window coordinates for the cell at the row specified by path and the column specified by column . If path is NULL, or points to a path not currently displayed, the y and height fields of the rectangle will be filled with 0. If column is NULL, the x and width fields will be filled with 0. The sum of all cell rects does not cover the entire tree; there are extra pixels in between rows, for example. The returned rectangle is equivalent to the cell_area passed to gtk_cell_renderer_render(). This function is only valid if tree_view is realized.

Parameters

tree_view

a GtkTreeView

 

path

a GtkTreePath for the row, or NULL to get only horizontal coordinates.

[allow-none]

column

a GtkTreeViewColumn for the column, or NULL to get only vertical coordinates.

[allow-none]

rect

gtk_tree_view_get_background_area ()

void
gtk_tree_view_get_background_area (GtkTreeView *tree_view,
                                   GtkTreePath *path,
                                   GtkTreeViewColumn *column,
                                   GdkRectangle *rect);

Fills the bounding rectangle in bin_window coordinates for the cell at the row specified by path and the column specified by column . If path is NULL, or points to a node not found in the tree, the y and height fields of the rectangle will be filled with 0. If column is NULL, the x and width fields will be filled with 0. The returned rectangle is equivalent to the background_area passed to gtk_cell_renderer_render(). These background areas tile to cover the entire bin window. Contrast with the cell_area , returned by gtk_tree_view_get_cell_area(), which returns only the cell itself, excluding surrounding borders and the tree expander area.

Parameters

tree_view

a GtkTreeView

 

path

a GtkTreePath for the row, or NULL to get only horizontal coordinates.

[allow-none]

column

a GtkTreeViewColumn for the column, or NULL to get only vertical coordiantes.

                                   GtkTreeIter *iter);

This function is supposed to be used in a “query-tooltip” signal handler for GtkTreeView. The x , y and keyboard_tip values which are received in the signal handler, should be passed to this function without modification.

The return value indicates whether there is a tree view row at the given coordinates (TRUE) or not (FALSE) for mouse tooltips. For keyboard tooltips the row returned will be the cursor row. When TRUE, then any of model , path and iter which have been provided will be set to point to that row and the corresponding model. x and y will always be converted to be relative to tree_view ’s bin_window if keyboard_tooltip is FALSE.

Parameters

tree_view

a GtkTreeView

 

x

the x coordinate (relative to widget coordinates).

[inout]

y

the y coordinate (relative to widget coordinates).

[inout]

keyboard_tip

whether this is a keyboard tooltip or not

 

model

a pointer to receive a GtkTreeModel or NULL.

[out][allow-none][transfer none]

path

a pointer to receive a GtkTreePath or NULL.

[out][allow-none]

iter

a pointer to receive a GtkTreeIter or NULL.

[out][allow-none]

Returns

whether or not the given tooltip context points to a row.

Since 2.12


gtk_tree_view_get_tooltip_column ()

gint
gtk_tree_view_get_tooltip_column (GtkTreeView *tree_view);

Returns the column of tree_view ’s model which is being used for displaying tooltips on tree_view ’s rows.

Parameters

tree_view

a GtkTreeView

 

Returns

the index of the tooltip column that is currently being used, or -1 if this is disabled.

Since 2.12


gtk_tree_view_set_tooltip_column ()

void
gtk_tree_view_set_tooltip_column (GtkTreeView *tree_view,
                                  gint column);

If you only plan to have simple (text-only) tooltips on full rows, you can use this function to have GtkTreeView handle these automatically for you. column should be set to the column in tree_view ’s model containing the tooltip texts, or -1 to disable this feature.

When enabled, “has-tooltip” will be set to TRUE and tree_view will connect a “query-tooltip” signal handler.

Note that the signal handler sets the text with gtk_tooltip_set_markup(), so &, <, etc have to be escaped in the text.

Parameters

tree_view

a GtkTreeView

 

column

an integer, which is a valid column number for tree_view ’s model

 

Since 2.12

user_function (GtkTreeView *tree_view,
               gpointer     user_data)

The position of the cursor (focused cell) has changed.

Parameters

tree_view

the object on which the signal is emitted

 

user_data

user data set when the signal handler was connected.

 

Flags: Run Last


The “expand-collapse-cursor-row” signal

gboolean
user_function (GtkTreeView *treeview,
               gboolean     arg1,
               gboolean     arg2,
               gboolean     arg3,
               gpointer     user_data)

Flags: Action


The “move-cursor” signal

gboolean
user_function (GtkTreeView    *tree_view,
               GtkMovementStep step,
               gint            direction,
               gpointer        user_data)

The “move-cursor” signal is a keybinding signal which gets emitted when the user presses one of the cursor keys.

Applications should not connect to it, but may emit it with g_signal_emit_by_name() if they need to control the cursor programmatically. In contrast to gtk_tree_view_set_cursor() and gtk_tree_view_set_cursor_on_cell() when moving horizontally “move-cursor” does not reset the current selection.

Parameters

tree_view

the object on which the signal is emitted.

 

step

the granularity of the move, as a GtkMovementStep. GTK_MOVEMENT_LOGICAL_POSITIONS, GTK_MOVEMENT_VISUAL_POSITIONS, GTK_MOVEMENT_DISPLAY_LINES, GTK_MOVEMENT_PAGES and GTK_MOVEMENT_BUFFER_ENDS are supported. GTK_MOVEMENT_LOGICAL_POSITIONS and GTK_MOVEMENT_VISUAL_POSITIONS are treated identically.

 

direction

the direction to move: +1 to move forwards; -1 to move backwards. The resulting movement is undefined for all other values.

 

user_data

user data set when the signal handler was connected.

 

Returns

TRUE if step is supported, FALSE otherwise.

Flags: Action


The “row-activated” signal

void
user_function (GtkTreeView       *tree_view,

               GtkTreeViewColumn *column,
               gpointer           user_data)

The "row-activated" signal is emitted when the method gtk_tree_view_row_activated() is called, when the user double clicks a treeview row with the "activate-on-single-click" property set to FALSE, or when the user single clicks a row when the "activate-on-single-click" property set to TRUE. It is also emitted when a non-editable row is selected and one of the keys: Space, Shift+Space, Return or Enter is pressed.

For selection handling refer to the tree widget conceptual overview as well as GtkTreeSelection.
