                            gpointer data);

### gtk_tree_view_column_new ()

    ...
    {
      GtkTreeViewColumn *column;
      GtkCellRenderer   *renderer = gtk_cell_renderer_text_new ();

      column = gtk_tree_view_column_new_with_attributes ("Title",
                                                         renderer,

                                     gboolean expand);

Packs the `cell` into the beginning of the column. If `expand` is `FALSE`, then the `cell` is allocated no more space than it needs. Any unused space is divided evenly between cells for which `expand` is `TRUE`.

                                   gboolean expand);

Adds the `cell` to end of the column. If `expand` is `FALSE`, then the `cell` is allocated no more space than it needs. Any unused space is divided evenly between cells for which `expand` is `TRUE`.

#### Parameters

tree_column | A GtkTreeViewColumn. |
cell | The GtkCellRenderer. |
expand | `TRUE` if `cell` is to be given extra space allocated to `tree_column` . |

### gtk_tree_view_column_clear ()

                                   (GtkTreeViewColumn *tree_column);

`gtk_tree_view_column_get_cell_renderers` has been deprecated since version 2.18 and should not be used in newly-written code.

use `gtk_cell_layout_get_cells()` instead.

Returns a newly-allocated GList of all the cell renderers in the column, in no particular order. The list must be freed with `g_list_free()`.

#### Parameters

tree_column | A GtkTreeViewColumn |

#### Returns

A list of GtkCellRenderers

                                        gint column);

Adds an attribute mapping to the list in `tree_column` . The `column` is the column of the model to get a value from, and the `attribute` is the parameter on `cell_renderer` to be set from the value. So for example if column 2 of the model contains strings, you could have the "text" attribute of a GtkCellRendererText get its values from column 2.

#### Parameters

tree_column | A GtkTreeViewColumn. |
cell_renderer | the GtkCellRenderer to set attributes on |
attribute | An attribute on the renderer |
column | The column position on the model to get the attribute from. |

                                         ...);

Sets the attributes in the list as the attributes of `tree_column` . The attributes should be in attribute/column order, as in `gtk_tree_view_column_add_attribute()`. All existing attributes are removed, and replaced with the new attributes.

#### Parameters

tree_column | A GtkTreeViewColumn. |
cell_renderer | the GtkCellRenderer we're setting the attributes of |
Varargs | A `NULL`-terminated list of attributes. |

Gets the logical `sort_column_id` that the model sorts on when this column is selected for sorting. See `gtk_tree_view_column_set_sort_column_id()`.

#### Parameters

tree_column | a GtkTreeViewColumn |

#### Returns

the current `sort_column_id` for this column, or -1 if this column can't be used for sorting.

### gtk_tree_view_column_set_sort_indicator ()

    void
    gtk_tree_view_column_set_sort_indicator
                                   (GtkTreeViewColumn *tree_column,
                                    gboolean setting);

Call this function with a `setting` of `TRUE` to display an arrow in the header button indicating the column is sorted. Call `gtk_tree_view_column_set_sort_order()` to change the direction of the arrow.

#### Parameters

tree_column | a GtkTreeViewColumn |
setting | `TRUE` to display an indicator that the column is sorted |

### gtk_tree_view_column_get_sort_indicator ()

    gboolean
    gtk_tree_view_column_get_sort_indicator
                                   (GtkTreeViewColumn *tree_column);

Gets the value set by `gtk_tree_view_column_set_sort_indicator()`.

#### Parameters

tree_column | a GtkTreeViewColumn |

#### Returns

whether the sort indicator arrow is displayed

### gtk_tree_view_column_set_sort_order ()

    void
    gtk_tree_view_column_set_sort_order (GtkTreeViewColumn *tree_column,
                                         GtkSortType order);

Changes the appearance of the sort indicator.

This does not actually sort the model. Use `gtk_tree_view_column_set_sort_column_id()` if you want automatic sorting support. This function is primarily for custom sorting behavior, and should be used in conjunction with `gtk_tree_sortable_set_sort_column()` to do that. For custom models, the mechanism will vary.

The sort indicator changes direction to indicate normal sort or reverse sort. Note that you must have the sort indicator enabled to see anything when calling this function; see `gtk_tree_view_column_set_sort_indicator()`.

#### Parameters

tree_column | a GtkTreeViewColumn |
order | sort order that the sort indicator should indicate |

### gtk_tree_view_column_get_sort_order ()

    GtkSortType
    gtk_tree_view_column_get_sort_order (GtkTreeViewColumn *tree_column);

Gets the value set by `gtk_tree_view_column_set_sort_order()`.

#### Parameters

tree_column | a GtkTreeViewColumn |

#### Returns

the sort order the sort indicator is indicating

                                    GtkTreeModel *tree_model,
                                    GtkTreeIter *iter,

Sets the cell renderer based on the `tree_model` and `iter` . That is, for every attribute mapping in `tree_column` , it will get a value from the set column on the `iter` , and use that value to set the attribute on the cell renderer. This is used primarily by the GtkTreeView.

#### Parameters

tree_column | A GtkTreeViewColumn. |
tree_model | The GtkTreeModel to to get the cell renderers attributes from. |
iter | The GtkTreeIter to to get the cell renderer's attributes from. |
is_expander | `TRUE`, if the row has children |
is_expanded | `TRUE`, if the row has visible children |

                                        gint *height);

Obtains the width and height needed to render the column. This is used primarily by the GtkTreeView.

#### Parameters

tree_column | A GtkTreeViewColumn. |
cell_area | The area a cell in the column will be allocated, or `NULL`. | [allow-none]
x_offset | location to return x offset of a cell relative to `cell_area` , or `NULL`. | [out][allow-none]

                                    gint *width);

Obtains the horizontal position and size of a cell in a column. If the cell is not found in the column, `start_pos` and `width` are not changed and `FALSE` is returned.

#### Parameters

tree_column | a GtkTreeViewColumn |
cell_renderer | a GtkCellRenderer |
start_pos | return location for the horizontal position of `cell` within `tree_column` , may be `NULL` |
width | return location for the width of `cell` , may be `NULL` |
