Re: TreeView cell editing

[James Pelletier <jamesp trdlnk com>]

I'm actually using the standard CellRendererText, but I would like my 
application to have a bit more controll over the gtk_entry while the 
cell is being edited. I can't seem to find any methods of any object 
that will return the gtk_entry so I can connect to some of its signals. 
It appears that your example is from a custom renderer. I wouldn't 
expect to have to subclass the renderer in order to do this.

Any thoughts?
