I believe that you want Gtk::TreeView::set_cursor():
http://gtkmm.org/docs/gtkmm-2.4/docs/reference/html/classGtk_1_1TreeView.html#eace1596d745a904c79b6d1b437da778
(or the overload if you have more than one cell renderer in the column.)

And possibly:
http://gtkmm.org/docs/gtkmm-2.4/docs/reference/html/classGtk_1_1TreeView.html#9f7c82b4307dfcf1602c89a32c42bb5e

I tend to use both, though I don't see how a cell could be edited
without it being visible in the ScrolledWindow.
