gtk:cell-renderer-text-max-width-chars (object)

object -- a gtk:cell-renderer-text object
width -- an integer for the maximum width of the cell

The accessor for the max-width-chars slot of the gtk:cell-renderer-text class get or sets the desired maximum width of the cell, in characters. If this property is set to -1, the width will be calculated automatically. For cell renderers that ellipsize or wrap text. This property controls the maximum reported width of the cell. The cell should not receive any greater allocation unless it is set to expand in its gtk:cell-layout object and all of the cell's siblings have received their natural width. The gtk:cell-renderer-text implementation is deprecated since 4.10. Please do not use it in newly written code.
