Re: "clicked" signal on a selected row in a TreeView

[Jeremy Wise <jwise pathwaynet com>]

I'm doing this in gnomeicu (CVS HEAD), and it works with one minor
problem... it calls the menu, then changes the selection... so at start,
nothing's selected.. i click on A.. no menu.. i click on B, menu comes
up for A.. i click row C, i get a menu like i clicked on B.. i click on
C again, i get C... i tried changing the signal in glade to be "After",
but then no menu whatsoever...

Ideas?

Thanks!
