Re: GTK TreeView Column Header Colors

Calling gtk_widget_modify_bg on it will change the background colour of the column header. Thanks for this insider tip! I realised that this might also be a workaround the problem I had setting tooltips to treeview column headers (also clist's). I tried it and it was. Setting the tooltip to the result of a triply nested Get_Parent call on the label does the trick. The fact that it must be shown and realized also makes it more cumbersome than the old method with eventboxes though. The next Gtk version will probably get a new routine for it.

Nope, I tried and tried. the Header lables, AFAICT, cannot be changed from the standard colors. I'd be interested if anyone can prove me wrong though. It is possible, just not particularly obvious.
