[Gtk-sharp-list] TreeView nightmares

I'm not really sure if i understand you, but i guess:

If you wish to have an index in a ListStore, simple add a new column (not 
visible) with a subsequent number. Or maybe a better solution is to add your 
Object (the one that you want to refer) to the ListStore, some simple 
example:


// The ListStore
ListStore panelStore = new ListStore(typeof(string), typeof(string), 
typeof(CustomObject), typeof(int));
myTreeView.AppendColumn("Description 1", new CellRendererText(), "text", 0);
myTreeView.AppendColumn("Description 2", new CellRendererText(), "text", 1);
myTreeView.Model = panelStore;

// Add items
panelStore.AppendValues("Item 1", "My Item 1", new object(), 0);
panelStore.AppendValues("Item 2", "My Item 2", new object(), 1);

I don't remember which is the event to get the Double Click on a Treeview, 
but, inside of it, you have to do this:
	TreeIter iter;
	if(myTreeView.Selection.GetSelected(out iter)) {
			Console.WriteLine((string)myTreeView.Model.GetValue(iter, 0)) // The 
first description
			Console.WriteLine((string)myTreeView.Model.GetValue(iter, 1)) // The 
second description
			object myObject = (object)myTreeView.Model.GetValue(iter, 2) // My Object
			int idx = (object)myTreeView.Model.GetValue(iter, 3) // The index
	}

If you wish to get all of the Iters (and all of the values) of your Model, 
try this:

			TreeIter iter;
			TreeModel model = myTreeView.Model;
			ListStore store = ((ListStore)model);
			if(store.GetIterFirst(out iter))
			do
			{
				Console.WriteLine((string)myTreeView.Model.GetValue(iter, 0)) // The 
first description
				Console.WriteLine((string)myTreeView.Model.GetValue(iter, 1)) // The 
second description
				object myObject = (object)myTreeView.Model.GetValue(iter, 2) // My 
Object
				int idx = (object)myTreeView.Model.GetValue(iter, 3) // The index
			}while(store.IterNext(ref iter));


I hope it helps :)
