Re: treeview Tab control

[Галымжан Кожаев <kozhayev gmail com>]

Hi, Thomas.
Maybe you should try to catch GDK events ? Like this:

// in constructor
signal_key_press_event().connect(sigc::mem_fun(*this,
&MyTreeView::onKeyPressEvent), false);

/// .............
bool MyTreeView::onKeyPressEvent(GdkEventKey* event) {
  if(event->type == GDK_KEY_PRESS) {
    if(event->keyval == GDK_Return) {
      // set active next column
      // ...
      // and stop executing of other handlers
      return true;
    }
  }
  return false;
}

If your gdk event handler returns true, all other handlers won't be
executed. GDK_Return represents "Enter" key, you should replace it
with GDK_Tab (but i'm not sure, look at gtkmm header files).
