5 A container for arranging buttons horizontally
7 <!-- ##### SECTION Long_Description ##### -->
9 A button box should be used to provide a consistent layout of buttons
10 throughout your application. The layout/spacing can be altered by the
11 programmer, or if desired, by the user to alter the 'feel' of a
12 program to a small degree.
15 A #GtkHButtonBox is created with gtk_hbutton_box_new(). Buttons are
16 packed into a button box the same way widgets are added to any other
17 container, using gtk_container_add(). You can also use
18 gtk_box_pack_start() or gtk_box_pack_end(), but for button boxes both
19 these functions work just like gtk_container_add(), ie., they pack the
20 button in a way that depends on the current layout style and on
21 whether the button has had gtk_button_box_set_child_secondary() called
26 The spacing between buttons can be set with gtk_box_set_spacing(). The
27 arrangement and layout of the buttons can be changed with
28 gtk_button_box_set_layout().
