Gtk.Treeview get current row index in Python
Somewhat late, perhaps not so relevant, but if you have double clicked on the selected row you will get the row index as element of the TreePath tuple, like so
def on_row_activated(self, treeview, path, column):
model = self.treeview.get_model()
tree_iter = model.get_iter(path)
row = path[0]
if tree_iter:
# here you can get the values of the columns
The other answer is likely more useful in general. However, to answer the actual question posed by the OP, how to get the row index: assuming one row is selected, you can get it with:
index = treeview.get_selection().get_selected_rows()[1][0][0]
You can call gtk.TreeView.get_selection
to get the current selection (gtk.TreeSelection
). You can then call gtk.TreeSelection.get_selected
to get:
a 2-tuple containing a reference to the gtk.TreeModel and a gtk.TreeIter pointing to the currently selected node.
The iter can be used on a gtk.TreeModel
(which is obtained by calling gtk.TreeView.get_model
. You can then use gtk.TreeModel.get_value
to get any of the column values of the node at that position in the tree.
