Hello, I wanted to study the GtkCellRendererCombo so I added it directly to the treeview (as column). The combobox is initially hidden, only the "text" value is shown. The combo becomes visible after user clicks or double-clicks the column in the row.
Unfortunately the click event does not work (or pass through) when the GtkCellRendererCombo is baked inside a custom-renderer class. Therefore it simply shows the "text" value, the combo-list itself is not accessible or visible. This might explain why GTK3 has NO renderer for very common type of widgets, like GtkButton. There is no GtkCellRendererButton class because it cannot handle the events. I may need to use the low-level painting functions directly, like gtk_paint_arrow(...) gtk_paint_shadow(...) gtk_paint_box(...) And somehow calculate the co-ordinates for click-events.
