Here comes the question/problem: the tree expander arrows are always
on the first column, is there a way to have them in another column
AND follow that column when I drag&drop it?
I can't find any relevant function.
I found gtk_tree_view_set_expander_column (not documented) which
allows to specify the *visual* column where to draw the expander
arrows, not the *logical* column: when a drag&drop a column, the
expanders don't follow it.
(and is this the expected behaviour or is this a bug?)
I'm not sure which makes more sense -- the expander set in a location in
the view, or on a particular column. I was toying with the idea of
making it column based, but that would make people who want the expander
always left justified have to listen to "columns_changed" and move the
expander.
If you want to change the behavior, you can listen to that signal and
set_expander_column to the correct column.
Would it be possible to implement this as part of GtkTreeView?
I think about two possibilities:
· I can't see any good reason to have expanders in, say, the view's second
column -- and always there. Either they are left justified or attached
to a particular column.
- by default, expanders are always left justified.
- set_expander_column attaches them to the specified column
- use set_expander_column(-1) -- or make a set_expander_column_default
function -- to revert to the default (always left justified)
· if you want to keep the current behaviour, add function to attach the
expanders to the column rather than the view (taking a boolean as
argument).
The internal implementation may be done by calling set_expander_column
when columns are reordered or handled directly in the GtkTreeView
display (it seems it's just a matter of changing the i ==
tree_view->priv->expander_column tests)
This isn't a priority for me -- there are much more important things
that need doing in GtkTreeView. If you submit a patch, it's much more
likely to get in.
