[Vala] using liststore objects

[Joss 4 <gpnet abraerp it>]

Hi Yu,

Thanks again,
With your post I began to understand something abou the name convention 
and style settings.  Now I try to do some test.
In order to set GTK properties do you think it always be this way for 
ever?  I was asking why one can't set properties directly like code  :
widget.backcolor = clRed;
widget.Font = new Font( "Arial", 8, style.regular);

It is so simply and natural. Is there some unknown thing  under X11 or 
whatever else we don't know ? . I remember when I learned about objects 
and properties ....  and so what is the definition of GTK+ ?.
Scuse me , I am a little critic , but I spent 12 days to fight whit GTK  
to make a little form with 2 TreeView-Listview and some buttons. With 
this time with sharpdevelop on windows I realized a whole report 
designer with property editor and browser field.
That said, I like vala  because  I think it is a good bridge from 
windows to linux  without any runtime level  between. I agree with your 
sentence : "you might have to settle with this situation" ,  in order to 
vala, but I understend people  at scribus that decided to convert  all 
from GTK+ to QT.

Okay , I still have to solve :

- ListStore Header column resize
- ListStore grid visible , thikness and color.
- ListStore invisible columns
- ListStore  background image or background color
- Widget border width and color

... and last but not least  Code completion and list of available 
packages in valide.

Can you suggest some specific code snippet of people that already did 
it. ? , Don't get me wrong I don't want abuse of your kindness , I just 
want help to realize a minimum application right to better evaluate vala.

Thansk  a lot.
