Hello, > As a side question, I'm a little confused about the "text" property in > gtk_tree_view_insert_column_with_attributes(). What is this the > "text" property to? There is a little misunderstanding in the function gtk_tree_view_insert_column_with_attributes() here. The explanations for the ... in the function is given is the gtk_tree_view_column_new_with_attributes() function (which is called by the routine you use) (http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gtk/GtkTreeViewColumn.html#gtk-tree-view-column-new-with-attributes). To sum up, your model use N fields (yours is 11), numbered from 0 to N - 1. Then, the viewing system (here, the render of the column), need to know where its properties should be read in the model (i.e. which field). So here you have to say that the "text" property of your textRenderer is read from field n in [0;N[. So, syntaxically, writing > col=gtk_tree_view_insert_column_with_attributes(GTK_TREE_VIEW(tv), > -1, "First Column", > renderer, > "text", TRUE, > NULL); is correct but it means that the "text" is read from the second field of your model (TRUE = 1)... You should have done something like this: /* Replace here FOO_n with meaningful names */ enum { ipmsPrice_FOO_0, ipmsPrice_FOO_1, ... ipmsPrice_FOO_10 } ... /* Create 3 columns with text rendering */ renderer = gtk_cell_renderer_text_new() gtk_tree_view_insert_column_with_attributes (GTK_TREE_VIEW(tv), -1, "First Column", renderer, "text", ipmsPrice_FOO_0, NULL); gtk_tree_view_insert_column_with_attributes (GTK_TREE_VIEW(tv), -1, "Second Column", renderer, "text", ipmsPrice_FOO_1, "color", ipmsPrice_FOO_2, NULL); gtk_tree_view_insert_column_with_attributes (GTK_TREE_VIEW(tv), -1, "Third Column", renderer, "text", ipmsPrice_FOO_3, NULL); ... /* Populate your model (assuming a treestore) */ gtk_tree_store_prepend(GTK_TREE_STORE(tm), &iter, NULL); gtk_tree_store_set(GTK_TREE_STORE(tm), &iter, ipmsPrice_FOO_0, "captain", ipmsPrice_FOO_1, "age", ipmsPrice_FOO_2, "red", ipmsPrice_FOO_3, 42, NULL);
Of course you can read from your model whatever information you want, not only the text to be rendered, but also the rendering colour of that text... To do it, add a string field in your model and when you set the value using gtk_treemodel_set(), put "red" or whatever in that field. And "connect" the "color" property to this field when inserting the column as shown in the example. Hope this will help your TreeView problem.
