Re: [disregard] GtkTreeView mouse hovering

[Olaf Telshörner <olaf tsc7 yahoo de>]

Hi,

you may connect to the signals "enter-notify-event" and
"leave-notify-event". They are emitted when the mouse enters or leaves the
widget.
If you are seeking a signal that is emitted whenever the pointer get moved,
you should connect to the "motion-notify-event". To do so, you have to place
you TreeView widget in a GtkEventBox and add the GDK_POINTER_MOTION_MASK to
the event's box event mask using for example gtk_widget_add_events.
Then you connect the the EventBox's "motion-notify-event" signal.
