Gtk::Menu question

[Joe Laughlin]

I have a Gtk::TreeView popuplated with rows. When the user right-clicks on
one of the rows, a menu pops up and the user has several choices. I can
attach a callback function to one of these menu choices and it's being
called correctly, but how can I pass to the callback function some type of a
reference to what row was right-clicked?

I hope that makes sense,
Joe

Hi,

I have a Gtk::TreeView popuplated with rows. When
the user right-clicks on
one of the rows, a menu pops up and the user has

choices and it's being
called correctly, but how can I pass to the callback
function some type of a
reference to what row was right-clicked?

I hope that makes sense,

When the user right-clicks on a row, it gets selected
and the selected row can be retrieved with:

treeview.signal_connect('button-press-event'){|tv, eb|
if eb.button == 3
path, column = treeview.cursor
p path.to_s
end
}

Is that enough?

Cheers,
Joao

Another GTK question: Isn't there some type of a GTK timer event that I can
have call a given function or do a certain action every X milliseconds? I
looked through the API docs, but I couldn't see it, but I remember using
something like that with pygtk.

Like this?

Gtk.timeout_add(5000){
p Time.new
# returns false to end the timer
false
}
