I’ve been trying to create an instance of a tree component where to the right of the textlabel for each ‘endnode’ (so not for the branches/folders) themselves I’d like to add an mc. This mc contains a bar which I want to set the width of depending on a value from the xml.

This is what the xml looks like:

```auto

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<tree>
  <node label="First node">
    <node label="Item 1" q="67"/>
    <node label="Item 2" q="21"/>
  </node>
  <node label="Second node">
    <node label="Item 3" q="88"/>
  </node>
</tree>

```

I’ve been looking at several tuts on cellrenderers but I can’t seem to figure out how on earth to do this properly. ☹

Anyone out here that’s able to shed a light on this subject?

I’ve tried several tuts already:
