Hi all, 2009/3/17 muppet <sc...@asofyet.org>: > Were you asking for the visible range after having removed the model?
I thought that might be the issue since I was disconnecting the model to load data and reconnecting afterwards, but the reconnection happens before the position restore. > You may need to wait for the adjustment change to take effect.

This seems to have done the trick - even the standard priority seems to do it with little to no flicker as far as I can tell, and puts it exactly at the right place. Ta :) Incidentally I tried a timeout handler as well - still worked, but there was visible flicker no matter how 'soon' I scheduled it for. In case someone is searching for some code to help in future, the following works (although doesn't handle the horizontal scrollbars obviously): Glib::Idle->add(sub { my $args = shift; my ($pos, $list) = @$args; my $adj = $list->get_vadjustment; return 0 if not defined $adj; ## JIC $pos = $adj->upper if $pos > $adj->upper; # In case the list has shrunk since $adj->set_value($pos); 0; }, [$listposition, $listview]); > Well, if you want it to look to the user as though the view is just as he > left it, then simply scrolling a certain row onscreen may not be sufficient. > If i understand correctly, when you scroll to the list item, it's somewhat > random as to where it will be (depends on your parameters). So, scroll to > point isn't that bad of a compromise. True - i forgot that scroll_to_cell doesn't really define where in the view the cell will be. 2009/3/17 Kevin Ryde <use...@zip.com.au>: >> I initially tried using $treeview->get_visible_range and >> $treeview->scroll_to_cell, but get_visible_range seems to be a little >> flakey on my system and often aborts with a message about some >> assertion failing (something != nil I think). > > Sounds like a bug. It probably is - it seems the age of the current (approved) install of Gtk and perl/Gtk is somewhat ancient. Maybe it would have been better if I didn't find a solution to force an upgrade :) MB _______________________________________________ gtk-perl-list mailing list gtk-perl-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-perl-list
