I subclassed gtk.Table, then started trying to integrate it with Glade-2. I realized I needed to set __gproperties__ to add a property to the class, so I added that:
__gproperties__ = { 'use_checkboxes' : (gobject.TYPE_BOOLEAN, # type 'use checkboxes for Booleans', # nick name 'use checkboxes for Booleans', # description True, # default value gobject.PARAM_READWRITE|gobject.PARAM_CONSTRUCT # flags ) } I also changed my superclass init call from gtk.GtkTable.__init__(self, rows, cols) to gobject.__gobject_init__() self.set_property("n-rows", rows) self.set_property("n-columns", cols) I have other instance attributes as well: self.widgets = {} self.values = {} self.formats = {} self.default_format = "%s" I will eventually change default_format to a property. If I instantiate my Table widget from Python, it seems to work fine. When it's instantiated via Glade its __init__ method doesn't appear to be called though. A print statement placed in Table.__init__() is not executed, and Python denies that my class has a widgets attribute. I incorporated the class into Glade by adding a regular GtkTable where I wanted my Table, then using the output of print gobject.type_name(Table) I substituted that for "GtkTable" in my Glade file: <widget class="Utilities+table+Table" id="ContractArea"> <property name="visible">True</property> <property name="n_rows">1</property> <property name="n_columns">6</property> <property name="homogeneous">False</property> <property name="row_spacing">0</property> <property name="column_spacing">0</property> </widget> I must be missing something, but I'm not sure what. Any ideas?
