How to add a total row to the end of GtkTreeView - Part 1?


Solution

There is no "built-in" function in GtkTreeView or GtkTreeStore to add a total row automatically. We have to calculate the total columns and display it "manually".

  • Sum up the respective columns that require totals to be calculated. In this example, we do this while setting up the rows.
  • Append the total rows as the last row in the model.
  • If you wish to set up a different background to the total row, you can do this by setting up a GtkCelllayout::set_cell_data_func().

Explanation

The above sample code is based on How to display a 2D array in GtkTreeView - Part 5 - get user selection?.

What's new here:

  1. Sum the total for qty and amt columns.
  2. Append the total row to the model so that it will be displayed as the last row.
  3. We only require total to be displayed for qty and amt columns. So we set all other columns to ''.
  4. Display the total row in orange background.
