> What was the secret? I spoke too soon. I'm no closer to understanding how Rectangles are handled by pygtk. I was embarassed that I might be rehashing old ground, but there is almost nothing on this subject in over 11M of pygtk list archives.
gdk.Rectangle has a copy method. Playing around a bit, you can get a GdkRectangle by copying, say, Widget.allocation: rect = somewidget.allocation.copy() However, I tried passing this to TreeView.get_visible_rect, but the passed in rect doesn't change. I was able to get what I wanted (the first visible row & col on the top left (origin) of the TreeView) with TreeView.get_path_at_pos(0,0) (if you want the column number in the callback, you'll need to attach an integer to ViewColumn at creation time; there are still a few holes in the C-Gtk TreeView API.)
