It's the interactive search box. IIRC, when you have EnableSearch = true, the TreeView automatically implements search for you. > Basically I am trying to filter a model in a cellrenderercombo based on > chars typed at the keyboard but I'm having a problem getting a handler to > deal with this situation.

FWIW, if you want searching rather than filtering, just set EnableSearch = true, then either set SearchColumn to the column to be used for searching and/or set SearchEqualFunc to a custom comparison delegate. The main GTK docs have a bit more info on the way this works: http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/stable/GtkTreeView.html#GtkTreeViewSearchEqualFunc -- Michael Hutchinson http://mjhutchinson.com _______________________________________________ Gtk-sharp-list maillist - Gtk-sharp-list@lists.ximian.com http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/gtk-sharp-list
