Problem Suppose you have set up some cells of a GtkTreeView with multiple lines as outlined in Part 1.
By default, the contents are centered vertically as shown below.

Suppose you would like to align the contents of the cell to the top (i.e. similar to valign=top in HTML) as shown below:

Solution
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

Explanation We make use of the code from How to have multiple lines in a cell of GtkTreeView - Part 1?
What's new here:
- To set valign=top, set
yalign to 0. To set valign=bottom, set yalign to 1.
