Bob, >From what I've read in the GtkTreeView documentation, the rubber-banding mode only seems to support selection by dragging the mouse so one is only able to select consecutive rows, not a group of single non-contiguous rows. I could of course be wrong on that. It obviously sets the GTK_SELECTION_MULTIPLE mode of a GtkTreeSelection along with the drag detection. I find the Gtk documentation extremely terse and unhelpful in some areas. I did find a reference to the row-activated signal being emitted when"when a non-editable row is selected and one of the keys: Space, Shift+Space, Return or Enter is pressed." which would permit non-mouse row activation to initiate the selection of a transfer account
I also found a Python gtk discussion to the effect that GtkTreeView's slection capabilities were limited pretty well to the drag over to select and from that found a hint on how to do Ctrl click event detection using the GdkEventButton using the event-> state and also how to detect the right click event. When I included that in the import-main-matcher.c the row-activated signal stopped working. I am assuming here that the python GTK implementation is an exact parallel of the C++ implementation. I would expect it to be pretty similar and possibly just the C++ code in Python wrappers. I may have to setup a dummy program implementing a TreeView and just play with how things work with rubber banding and multiple selection until I understand it better and the interaction between the rubber-banding and multiple selection mode. Usually the best way of understanding incomplete or unclear documentation. I'm away for a few days on holidays so I'll try and tackle it then if my wife lets me get an opportunity. Otherwise it will be when I return.
