Hi John, Thanks for your answer. I fiddled and fiddled and finally figured out that I could limit the width of the troublesome columns; then the text in those columns started to show up and I could see that the newlines indeed do work.
Now I have problems controlling vertical alignment; also I wonder if it's possible to get the cell-rendered to wrap text when a line is too long to fit in the fixed width of a cell? My problem with vertical alignment is that when 1 field is multi-line and the others are not, the text of those other cells is centered in the middle (vertically). I would like it to be at the top of the cell. How would I achieve that? I've poured through the documentation without hitting upon and packing option for TreeViewColumns or other option that would help me achieve that.

[...] If the text has embedded newlines it should be displayed in multiple lines in a Cell RendererText. John [...] John, Indeed it works naturally as it should but since some cells contain very long lines, the column got really really wide and somehow then it refused to display any text at all in that column... And all columns seemed the same hight too, even for rows that I thought should have multiple lines... So it seems those long lines messed up a number of things. Thanks for the assistance! _______________________________________________ pygtk mailing list [email protected] http://www.daa.com.au/mailman/listinfo/pygtk Read the PyGTK FAQ: http://www.async.com.br/faq/pygtk/
