Am I right? You could indeed go that way and write a drag_drop handler. Since you will have to use gtk_drag_get_data() to retrieve the actual data that was dropped, you will probably end up implementing your own handler for drag_data_received as well (because gtk_drag_get_data() will trigger drag_data_received). Note that the default implementations of both of those handlers in GtkTreeView are not trivial at all; they contain logic to handle several special corner cases (drops on empty views, etc). > If so, the problem is that drag_drop handler don't get selection_data > and info parameters.

GtkTreeView just uses the (x, y) coordinates to figure out where you dropped. To determine if the user dropped in between or on a row, it just calculates where on the row the user dropped (vertically of course). If it was close to the row's edge, it will drop before or after; if the drop was closer to the middle of the row it will drop into. See gtk_tree_view_get_dest_row_at_pos(). Instead of replicating this tree view code, it might be well easier to derive a new class from GtkTreeModelFilter and implement the GtkTreeDragDest here. See GtkTreeModelSort for an example how the GtkTreeDragDest implementation would look like, it should be very similar. At some point in the future the GtkTreeModelFilter might implement the GtkTreeDragDest interface by default, but all kinds of interesting problems turn up, such as: ROW 1 [row 2] [row 3] ROW 4 say rows 2 and 3 are hidden. The tree view will only display row 1 and 4. Say the user drops a row in between row 1 and 4, where would you insert it in the original model, where row 2 and 3 do exist and are "visible"? I hope this clears things up a bit. regards, -kris. _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
