Hi, I've made a gtktreeviewcolumn with a custom GtkTreeCellDataFunc, called cell_func(). This custom function uses the underlying GtkListStore to render the cells: it uses gtk_tree_model_get() to fetch some values, and then g_object_set(renderer,...) to update the cell renderer.
Now, there are some time out functions running, which update the GtkListStore. These functions are all surrounded by gdk_threads_enter() and gdk_threads_leave(). However, the treeview isn't refreshed automatically. Only when I hover it with the mouse it gets really updated. Everytime these timeouts are running, cell_func() is actually called. My question is: how can I force g_object_set() to instantly redraw the cell renderer? My first thought was: use gdk_threads_enter() and gdk_threads_leave() also within cell_func(). But when I do that, I get a lock while constructing the treeview, therefore the app hangs. Putting the routine creating the treeview in a separate thread as well didn't result in anything good. Any ideas? thanks in advance. _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
