ListBox content change leads to cursor position reset

[pmiddend]

I have a ListBox with some children. Now I select a row in the ListBox, and press a button that changes the content of the selected row (say, by changing a Label to "installed"). This seems to completely reset the ListBox selection (so that no item is selected). I sort of get the problem here, but I'd love to somehow manage the selection myself, and ideally by using an index, so the selection is kept, even on change.

As I understand it, you should be able to change the content of a selected row without loosing selection, so long as the the changes don't require re-creating the entire row widget. Changing the text on a Label should not require recreating the Label, so that should work, I think. Could you paste a code sample?

As for managing the selection yourself, right now I think you would have to make a custom widget for this (see https://github.com/owickstrom/gi-gtk-declarative/blob/master/examples/CustomWidget.hs).
