Re: Problems with widgets in header of TreeViewColumn

[Simon Fuhrmann <NightSlayer gmx de>]

Hi list!

I solved the problem but I think the way GTK(mm) handles the situation is
neither intended nor user friendly. And there are still problems left.

I updated the demonstration program and annotated it with some comments. You
can find it here: http://pastebin.com/374535

The issues are:

  - The header widgets are only useable if
    they are set after the treeview is shown.
  - If the columns are reorderable and after a column
    has been reordered, the widgets are unuseable again.

If I do not get answers to these issues I will submit them as bugs.

Regards,
Simon
