Hi all, I have been beginning to use GtkTreeView with my own model under the assumption that it would be possible to change the data in one place (the model) and the possibly several views would get to know about it and update themselves. Indeed, although the official API reference [1] doesn't say much (well, it's a reference), there are a number of tutorial, some of which [2] also seem to assume that changing the model (setting a value in the model) would make the views update the cells. This is not the case. Looking at the code, there are a few callbacks which can be invoked. The one that looks the most like the right one could be gtk_tree_model_row_changed() [3], but that only checks if the size of the cell has changed, it does not necessarily update the cell if only the contents has changed. The is confirmed quickly if you look at the code [4] where no redraw call is made. I'm posting this to see if I have overlooked something obvious. Furthermore, there also doesn't seem to be any API I could call for each GtkTreeView (associated with a model) if a model has changed. Could someone confirm (or better correct) my observation?
