Class GTK2.Hbox

Inheritance graph
Description

Most packing is done by creating boxes. These are invisible widget containers that we can pack our widgets into which come in two forms, a horizontal box, and a vertical box. This is the horizontal one. When packing widgets into a horizontal box, the objects are inserted horizontally from left to right or right to left depending on the call used.
