Description: Reference for Gtk.CellAreaContext

### Class

# GtkCellAreaContext

deprecated: 4.10

#### Description [src]

    class Gtk.CellAreaContext : GObject.Object {
      /* No available fields */
    }

Stores geometrical information for a series of rows in a GtkCellArea

The `GtkCellAreaContext` object is created by a given `GtkCellArea` implementation via its `GtkCellAreaClass.create_context()` virtual method and is used to store cell sizes and alignments for a series of `GtkTreeModel` rows that are requested and rendered in the same context.

`GtkCellLayout` widgets can create any number of contexts in which to request and render groups of data rows. However, it’s important that the same context which was used to request sizes for a given `GtkTreeModel` row also be used for the same row when calling other `GtkCellArea` APIs such as `gtk_cell_area_render()` and gtk_cell_area_event().

Deprecated since: 4.10

This object will be removed in GTK 5
