Problem
You would like to display bold and colored fonts in a treeview as shown below:
This feature has long existed even in the Gnope version. However until now, it is still not documented yet in the official php-gtk2 manual.
Solution
- Use GtkCelllayout::set_cell_data_func() to add your user-defined cell-display function.
- Display the cell content containing the pango markup by setting the property 'markup' (yes, it's not documented yet in the official php-gtk2 manual).
Sample Code
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88 89 90 91 95 96 97 98 100 101 102 103 104 105 106 107 108 109 110 111 112 113 114 116 117 118 119 120 121 122 123 124 125 126 127 128 129 130 131 132 | <?php $window = new GtkWindow(); $window->set_size_request(400, 200); $window->connect_simple('destroy', array('Gtk','main_quit')); $window->add($vbox = new GtkVBox()); // display title $title = new GtkLabel("Display bold and colored fonts in GtkTreeView\n".

Output
As shown above.
Explanation
We make use of the code from the familiar treeview example: How to display a 2D array in GtkTreeView - Part 5 - get user selection?
What's new here:
- Setup the cell display funciton.
- Get the value of the current cell.
- For the description column (col 1), let's display it using Verdana size 12 in bold. (For linux users, please chnage to your respective font on your machine.)
- For the quantity column (col 2), let's display the quantity in red if it's less than 10, and in blue if it's more than or equals to 10.
- If you do not need any markup, just set the property 'text' instead of 'markup'.
- Display the rows in alternate row color.
