## Detailed Description

An abstract base class for laying out CellRenderers.

This is an abstract base class for CellLayout widgets (also referred to as "layouting widgets") to interface with an arbitrary number of CellRenderers and interact with the user for a given TreeModel row.

The cell area handles events, focus navigation, drawing and size requests and allocations for a given row of data.

Usually users dont have to interact with the CellArea directly unless they are implementing a cell layouting widget themselves.

## Requesting area sizes

As outlined in Gtk::Widget's geometry management description, GTK+ uses a height-for-width geometry management system to compute the sizes of widgets and user interfaces. CellArea uses the same semantics to calculate the size of an area for an arbitrary number of TreeModel rows.

When requesting the size of a cell area one needs to calculate the size for a handful of rows, and this will be done differently by different layouting widgets. For instance a TreeViewColumn always lines up the areas from top to bottom while an IconView, on the other hand, might enforce that all areas received the same width and wrap the areas around, requesting height for more cell areas when allocated less width.

It's also important for areas to maintain some cell alignments with areas rendered for adjacent rows (cells can appear "columnized" inside an area even when the size of cells are different in each row). For this reason the CellArea uses a CellAreaContext object to store the alignments and sizes along the way (as well as the overall largest minimum and natural size for all the rows which have been calculated with the said context).

The CellAreaContext is an opaque object specific to the CellArea which created it (see CellArea::create_context()). The owning cell-layouting widget can create as many contexts as it wishes to calculate sizes of rows which should receive the same size in at least one orientation (horizontally or vertically). However, it's important that the same CellAreaContext which was used to request the sizes for a given TreeModel row be used when rendering or processing events for that row.

## Cell Properties

The CellArea introduces cell properties for CellRenderers in very much the same way that Gtk::Container introduces child properties for Widgets. This provides some general interfaces for defining the relationship cell areas have with their cells. For instance in a CellAreaBox a cell might "expand" and receive extra space when the area is allocated more than its full natural request, or a cell might be configured to "align" with adjacent rows which were requested and rendered with the same CellAreaContext.

To set the value of a cell property, use cell_set_property(). To obtain the value of a cell property, use cell_get_property().

## ◆ copy_context()

Glib::RefPtr< CellAreaContext > Gtk::CellArea::copy_context | ( | const Glib::RefPtr< const CellAreaContext > & | context | ) |

This is sometimes needed for cases where rows need to share alignments in one orientation but may be separately grouped in the opposing orientation.

For instance, Gtk::IconView creates all icons (rows) to have the same width and the cells theirin to have the same horizontal alignments. However each row of icons may have a separate collective height. Gtk::IconView uses this to request the heights of each row based on a context which was already used to request all the row widths that are to be displayed.
