Hello, I have a TreeView with lots of rows, one its column is pixbuf and the pixbufs it displays may need to be loaded from disk which is quite slow. Moreover, in most cases user sees only a small fraction of them and then closes the view. So I want to load the pixbufs only when/if they are actually exposed. I set the pixbuf renderer to fixed size and loaded the pixbufs in cell data func. Unfortunately, the cell data func was called for each row when the TreeView was being created, so all pixbufs had to be loaded before the TreeView was shown and it was as slow as before. Since all the unwanted calls to cell data func happen before the TreeView is realized, my cell data func simply ignores all calls to it if the TreeView is not realized now. This seems to work quite well. But is it a good idea? Can I assume it will work with future Gtk+ versions?
