Hello, The GTK+ Reference Manual states that a combo box created with gtk_combo_box_new_text() should only be manipulated with the functions gtk_combo_box_append_text(), gtk_combo_box_insert_text(), gtk_combo_box_prepend_text() and gtk_combo_box_remove_text().
I am interested in removing all text entries from such a combo box. With the specified API this seems impossible unless I know how many items are in the combo box, as gtk_combo_box_remove_text() wants me to specify the index of the element I want to remove. It is not specified in the documentation how elements indexes change after I remove an element, but I guess if I remove the element with the index 0 over and over again, the combo box will be empty eventually. Unfortunately gtk_combo_box_remove_text() doesn't have a return value which would tell me that there was no element with that index, so I could stop removing it. So, in short, either the gtk_combo_box_*_text()-API is unusable for this specific task (remove all enries if the indexes (which are not returned upon creation of entries with _append_text(), btw) of the entries are unknown), or I am to stupid to understand the documentation. As I guess it is the latter I ask you to enlighten me. :-) Version Info: ii libgtk2.0-dev 2.20.1-2 ii libgtk2.0-doc 2.20.1-2 (Debian Sid) Regards, Timo
