Hi Guys,

Being resonably new to using GTK, im not fully aware of all its functionality.

Basically, i have a GtkTreeView widget that has 4 Columns. I need to update the text displayed in the 4 columns every couple of seconds, but im not aware how to do this in GTK.

Im aware that i could flush the data using gtk_tree_store_clear, but im not sure how to repopulate the columns and have the top level window refresh to show this new data.

Any ideas?

Regards

Paul
