The way that the GtkTreeView calculates sizing is pretty confusing.
|
|
This is written down to help keep track of it in my head, and thus help
|
|
anyone who hopes to work with the code in the future.

HOW THE GTKTREEVIEW CALCULATES SIZE:
|
|
====================================
|
|
When the view is given a new model, the first thing it does is walk
|
|
through the model at the top level, creating an GtkRBNode for each
|
|
element of the model. Each node has a height of 0. The RBTree is kept
|
|
updated as the models structure changes. Additionally, the user can
|
|
expand, collapse, and select rows at this stage. The RBTree is accurate
|
|
-- it just has a height of zero for every row.
|
|
|
|
When the widget is realized, it calls install_presize_handler, to setup
|
|
the first-run function. This is run before the expose event.
|
|
|
|
HOW THE GTKTREEVIEWCOLUMN STORES SIZE:
|
|
======================================
|
|
|
|
There are a number of size related fields in the GtkTreeViewColumn
|
|
structure. These are all valid after realization:
|
|
|
|
column_type The sizing method to use when calculating the size
|
|
of the column. Can be GROW_ONLY, AUTO, and FIXED.
|
|
|
|
button_request The width as requested by the button.
|
|
|
|
requested_width The width of the column as requested by the column.
|
|
It is the max requested width of the bcells in the
|
|
column. If the column_type is AUTO, then it is
|
|
recalculated when a column changes. Otherwise, it
|
|
only grows.
|
|
|
|
resized_width The width after the user has resized the column.
|
|
|
|
width The actual width of the column as displayed.
|
|
|
|
fixed_width The requested fixed width for the column iff it's
|
|
sizing type is set to GTK_TREE_VIEW_COLUMN_FIXED.
|
|
Used instead of requested_width in that case.
|
|
|
|
min_width The minimum width the column can be. If set to -1,
|
|
this field is considered unset.
|
|
|
|
max_width The maximum width the column can be. This can be
|
|
overridden for the last column, if the tree_view is
|
|
actually wider than the sum of all of the columns
|
|
requested_widths. If set to -1, this field is
|
|
considered unset.
|
|
|
|
|
|
use_resized_width Use resized_width to determine the size.
|
|
|
|
|
|
--
|
|
tree_view->priv->width = the width the widget wants to be, including headers.
|
|
tree_view->priv->height = the height the widget requests. It's the sum
|
|
of the width of all visible columns.
|
|
|
|
Both of these are calculated in _gtk_tree_view_update_size
|
|
|
|
--
|
|
|
|
The following invariants are true:
|
|
|
|
min_width is less than or equal to width
|
|
|
|
max_width is greater than or equal to width
|
|
|
|
min_width <= max_width
|
|
|
|
(sizing == GTK_TREE_VIEW_COLUMN_FIXED) => (requested_width == fixed_width)
|
|
|
|
(column != last visible column) => width == CLAMP (requested_width, min_width, max_width)
|

HOW THE VERTICAL OFFSET IS CALCULATED
|
|
(This has nothing to do with columns)
|
|
=====================================
|
|
|
|
The current offset of the tree is determined by:
|
|
|
|
tree_view->priv->dy
|
|
|
|
All motion/button/expose events take this as the offset when trying to
|
|
draw the tree. There are also two other related members:
|
|
|
|
tree_view->priv->top_row
|
|
tree_view->priv->top_row_dy
|
|
|
|
In general _gtk_rbtree_node_find_offset (tree_view->priv->top_row) +
|
|
tree_view->priv->top_row_dy is the same as tree_view->priv->dy.
|
|
We have the alternate method so we can update dy when the tree changes.
|
|
There are two functions:
|
|
|
|
gtk_tree_view_dy_to_top_row
|
|
and
|
|
gtk_tree_view_top_row_to_dy
|
|
|
|
They are called when the tree's confirmation changes, in order to sync
|
|
the value appropriately. Note that these two functions sometimes call
|
|
each other to negotiate a correct value if needed.
