GtkSheet is a matrix widget for Gtk+. It consist of an scrollable grid of
cells where you can allocate text which can be edited interactively. It is
also a container subclass so it allows you to display buttons, curves,
pixmaps and any other widget in it. You can also set many attributes as:
border, foreground and background color, text justification, etc. GtkSheet
comes also with an extra set of useful widgets: GtkComboBox, GtkColorCombo,
and GtkBorderCombo. A demo program shows all of them interacting in a
spreadsheet-like GUI.
This distribution includes the following set of widgets:
* GtkSheet
* GtkSheetEntry
* GtkComboBox
* GtkColorCombo
* GtkBorderCombo
and a demo program showing their features acting interactivelly.

GtkSheet-7.5
============
- New field in the GtkSheetCell struct :
gpointer link;
- You can link a cell to an object using:
gtk_sheet_link_cell(GtkSheet *sheet, gint row, gint col, gpointer link);
gtk_sheet_get_link(GtkSheet *sheet, gint row, gint col);
The only efect is making cell->link point to the given object.

GtkSheet-7.4
============

* Features added:
- Multiline button labels. ("this is\na multiline\nlabel")
- Themeable button gadgets.
- gtk_sheet_attach (GtkSheet *sheet, GtkWidget *child,
gint row, gint column,
gfloat x_align, gfloat y_align);
Attaches a child widget to the given cell with the given alignments.
The child is reallocated each time the column or row changes, keeping
attached to the same cell.
- GTK_SHEET_ADJUST_TEXT flag renamed as GTK_SHEET_CLIP_TEXT
Thanks to Jan Fedak <J.Fedak@sh.cvut.cz> for his comments, and to the
quicklist team for their perseverance (www.quicklist.org).
GtkSheet-7.3
============
Silly but big bug fixed on previous version.
GtkSheet-7.2
============
More silly bugs fixed. Thanks again to Sam and Bob.
(gtk_sheet_set_column_width/row_height, gtksheet_row/column_set_sensitivity)
Thanks to Erwan Corvellec <eco@club-internet.fr> for his patches and bug reports.
Twitching scrollbars aren't anymore.
Makefile builds libGtkSheet.a
GtkSheet-7.1
============
Maily a bug fix release, and some new features:
* About a dozen of "invisible" bugs fixed thanks to Quicklist team
(www.quicklist.org). Special thanks to Bob Lissner <lissnerr@ColdSprings.net>
and Sam Philips <sam@usaworks.com>. GtkSheet is being used by Quicklist,
and these guys made a lot of tests for it.
* Features added:
- gtk_sheet_set_column_titles_height(GtkSheet *sheet, gint height);
- gtk_sheet_set_row_titles_width(GtkSheet *sheet, gint width);
- gtk_sheet_column_set_justification(GtkSheet *sheet, gint column,
gint justification);
If column->justification != GTK_JUSTIFY_FILL (default value) it
will always win over individual cells' justifications.
- New flag: GTK_SHEET_AUTO_SCROLL. For default this flag is on. If
you turn it off, gtksheet won't scroll automatically to keep the
active cell in the viewport.
GtkSheet-7.0
============
GtkSheet has moved to gtk+-1.2 and new features have been added.
This version has been tested with gtk+-1.2.0
* GtkSheet is a self scrolling widget a la GtkClist and GtkLayout.
You have to add it to a scrolled window to display it propertly.
Shadow borders will be fixed with the patch added to gtkscrolledwindow.
* Container features implemented. Adding widgets to the sheet is very easy
with:
gtk_sheet_put (GtkSheet *sheet, GtkWidget *child, gint x, gint y);
* Move it with
gtk_sheet_move_child (GtkSheet *sheet, GtkWidget *widget, gint x, gint y);
* Remove it with
gtk_container_remove(GTK_CONTAINER(sheet), GtkWidget *child);
* Some signals have been renamed:
"activate_cell" -> "activate"
"deactivate_cell" -> "deactivate"
* Rejection option for activation/deactivation of the active cell.
* New signals:
"new_column_width"
"new_row_height"
* new function
gtk_sheet_set_cell_text(GtkSheet *sheet, gint row, gint col, gchar *text);
(you don't have to set the justification)
* Some minor bugs fixed.

GtkSheet Xtra Widgets Set
=========================
GtkComboBox:
============
Derived from Paolo Molaro's GtkCombo, it consists of a button, an arrow button,
and a popup window with a frame, that can contain a widget which is displayed
with the arrow. You can pack any widget in the frame (e.g. GtkCalendar).
It has been thought to be a parent class for the following widgets:
GtkColorCombo:
==============
It's a GtkComboBox subclass with a pallette of colors diplayed in a table.
GtkBorderCombo:
==============
It's a GtkComboBox subclass with a set of border patterns displayed in a table.
