Re: GTK and Customize menu widget - widget which can display some textand allows selection

[dreblen <dreblenj gmail com>]

You can use the "Enter" or "Return" key to select GtkTreeView items, so 
GtkTreeView should be an option.
I've made a widget like this before on GTK+ Forums, so you can look at 
it for reference,
although you should keep in mind that the implementation isn't the 
greatest (it should use
private data for example):
Here is the topic:

and here is my widget:
