That kind of makes > sense. In fact even that doesn't seem to be particularly useful if the first column has variable width contents. The values are packed together on each row indendently, so each row is just a bunch of concatenated text instead of distinct columns. But I really want the columns to be aligned, so that it's more obvious that part of the text is from the second column. > However, GtkComboBoxEntry and GtkCellRendererCombo don't use > pack_start() for the first column, and they default to expand=true. > GtkComboBoxEntry uses gtk_combo_box_entry_set_text_column() and > GtkCellRendererCombo use the "text-column" property. > > So it there anyway to set expand=true for the first columns of these > combos, or should expand=false maybe be the default for them? -- Murray Cumming murrayc@xxxxxxxxxxx www.murrayc.com www.openismus.com _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
