Hi! I've been trying for quite some time to create a table with 
drag-and-dropable cells in PyGTK, but I can't find a way to do it. My goal:A 
GUI of a table in which I can drag the contents of a cell over another cell and 
drop it there.* IMPORTANT: each cell consists of three parts - a string, an 
icon and a combobox* cells should look more like squares than like lines; 
Therefore, these three parts of each cell should be arranged vertically to each 
other, as if they were in a VBox* no grid lines required* I don't really care 
about the data model as long as the GUI works The problem:I tried two different 
approaches to implement my goal, one using a gtk.TreeView and one using a 
gtk.Table, and both times I could not figure out how to achieve the desired 
behaviour. With the TreeView, the problem is the vertical layout of the cell 
parts. I found the following code, which suggests that vertical layouts in 
TreeView cells are possible in GTK in general. Is there any way to implement 
this in PyGTK? "HowTo: Pack Gtk CellRenderers vertically in a Gtk TreeView[...]
var treeview = Gtk.TreeView();
var column = new Gtk.TreeViewColumn();var cellrenderer_1 = 
Gtk.CellRendererPixbuf();
var cellrenderer_2 = 
Gtk.CellRendererText();column.add_attribute(cellrenderer_1, "pixbuf", 0);
column.add_attribute(cellrenderer_2, "markup", 1);(column.get_area() as 
Gtk.Orientable).set_orientation(Gtk.Orientation.VERTICAL);column.pack_start(cellrenderer_1,
 false);
column.pack_start(cellrenderer_2, false);treeview.append_column(column);

  Using a gtk.Table I could not figure out how to determine the column in which 
a cell was dropped after a drag-and-drop operation. In addition, this 
implementation is more complicated, less robust and harder to manage than the 
TreeView implementation. Therefore I would prefer a solution based on a 
TreeView, if possible. Any suggestions? Thanks,Gerald
