## Description

The ExoCellRendererEllipsizedText renders a given text in its cell, using the font, color and style information provided by its properties (which are actually inherited from GtkCellRendererText).

Despite the rather confusing name of this class, it is mainly useful to render text in an ExoIconView (or a GtkIconView), which require the renderers to actually draw the state indicators. State indicators will be drawn only if the follow-state property is `TRUE`.

## Details

### ExoCellRendererEllipsizedText

    typedef struct _ExoCellRendererEllipsizedText ExoCellRendererEllipsizedText;

The ExoIconCellRendererEllipsizedText struct contains only private fields and should not be directly accessed.

### exo_cell_renderer_ellipsized_text_new ()

    GtkCellRenderer *   exo_cell_renderer_ellipsized_text_new
                                                            (void);

Creates a new ExoCellRendererEllipsizedText. Adjust rendering parameters using gobject properties, which can be set globally via `g_object_set()`. Also, with GtkCellLayout and GtkTreeViewColumn, you can bind a property to a value in a GtkTreeModel.

Returns : | the newly allocated ExoCellRendererEllipsizedText.

## Property Details

### The `"follow-state"` property

      "follow-state"             gboolean              : Read / Write

Specifies whether the text renderer should render the text based on the selection state of the items. This is necessary for ExoIconView which doesn't draw any item state indicators itself.

Default value: FALSE

Since 0.3.1.9
