Gtk.CellRenderer widgets are used to display information within widgets such as the Gtk.TreeView or Gtk.ComboBox. Below are the seven Gtk.CellRenderer widgets used for different purposes.

• Gtk.CellRendererText
• Gtk.CellRendererToggle
• Gtk.CellRendererPixbuf
• Gtk.CellRendererCombo
• Gtk.CellRendererProgress
• Gtk.CellRendererSpinner
• Gtk.CellRendererSpin
• Gtk.CellRendererAccel

In this tutorial, we are going to discuss Gtk.CellRendererText. A Gtk.CellRendererText renders a given text in its cell, using the font, color, and style information provided by its properties. 

Text in Gtk.CellRendererText widget can be make editable by 

cell.set_property("editable", True)

Example :

Python3

from gi.repository import Gtk import gi    gi.require_version("Gtk", "3.0")       class CellRendererTextWindow(Gtk.Window):     def __init__(self):         Gtk.Window.__init__(self, title ="Geeks For Geeks")            self.set_default_size(400, 400)            self.liststore = Gtk.ListStore(str, str)         self.liststore.append(             ["Python Archives", "https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/category/programming-language/python/"])         self.liststore.append(             ["Python-GTK Archives", "https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/tag/python-gtk/"])         self.liststore.append(             ["Data Structures Archives", "https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/category/data-structures/"])         self.liststore.append(             ["Algorithms Archives", "https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/category/algorithm/"])            treeview = Gtk.TreeView(model = self.liststore)            renderer_text = Gtk.CellRendererText()         column_text = Gtk.TreeViewColumn("Text", renderer_text, text = 0)         treeview.append_column(column_text)            renderer_editabletext = Gtk.CellRendererText()         renderer_editabletext.set_property("editable", True)            column_editabletext = Gtk.TreeViewColumn(             "Editable Text", renderer_editabletext, text = 1)            treeview.append_column(column_editabletext)            renderer_editabletext.connect("edited", self.text_edited)            self.add(treeview)        def text_edited(self, widget, path, text):         self.liststore[path][1] = text       win = CellRendererTextWindow() win.connect("destroy", Gtk.main_quit) win.show_all() Gtk.main()
