Re: Nbr. of visible rows in a clist?

[Gavin Jefferies <gj262 yahoo com>]

Hi John, 

Try set_usize(x, y) based on the row height and pack it with no
expansion, not elegant, e.g. in Perl this works for me.

   $clist->set_row_height(18);
   $clist->set_usize(0, 10 * 18);
   $vbox->pack_start($clist, 0, 0, 0);
