Problem This example shows you how to use the new widget GtkCellRendererSpin available in gtk+2.10 and above.
This widget is applicable only if you have set a GtkTreeView in edit mode. For numeric values, the widget allows the user to input or edit the numbers with a spin button as shown below:
Solution
- Set the cellrenderer in edit mode.
- Create a new GtkAdjustment
$adj and set the minimum and maximum values.
- Binds the
$adj to the cellrenderer with $cell_renderer->set_property('adjustment', $adj)
Important Note: This only works for PHP-GTK2 compliled with gtk+ v2.10 and above. If you are using an older version, for linux, you may follow the step-by-step instructions to recompile php-gtk2 with gtk+ v2.10. For windows, please refer to How to install php gtk2 on windows?

Explanation This example makes use of the code in How to edit items in GtkTreeView - using built in treeview edit - Part 2?.
What's new here:
- Create a new GtkCellRendererSpin for the column
qty.
- Create the GtkAdjustmnet.
- Binds the GtkAdjustmnet to the cellrenderer.
Note
I find that GtkCellRendererSpin will only increment or decrement by 1, no other values, and no floating number (e.g. 0.5). Not sure if this is a feature or a bug...
