Re: turning on grid lines in a TreeView

[Allen <allen saucier cas-inc com>]

Thanks Paul,

I've got

set_rules_hint (true)  but I do not know about the "style engine" or how to control it.  The methods I'm looking @ in the Gtk::TreeView are:

void Gtk::TreeView::set_grid_lines(TreeViewGridLines g_lines)
Glib::PropertyProxy<bool> Gtk::TreeView::property_enable_grid_lines()

and neither one work - not in the gtkmm dll.

I've looking on line, too, and have not found code examples to do this.  If set_rules_hint(true) actually enables the grid lines, then how does the style engine override this?

Thanks Paul.

Hello,

I've tried for hours to turn on the grid lines in my TreeView but the 
methods to do so are "not" w/in the class for some reason.  The 
documentation states 2 methods to do so but neither are actually w/in 
the the gtkmm library.

Would someone mind telling me how to turn on the gridlines in a TreeView?
    

its a style option, not really property of the TreeView.
TreeView::set_rules_hint (true) will tell the style engine that you'd
like the grid lines, but the style engine may override that.
