<div class="textblock"><p>Horizontal <a class="el" href="classGtk_1_1Box.html" title="A base class for box containers.">Box</a> for laying widgets in a horizontal row. </p>
<p>You should create these objects, but it is more confortable to pass around pointers of <a class="el" href="classGtk_1_1Box.html" title="A base class for box containers.">Gtk::Box</a>. All the methods that do anything are in class <a class="el" href="classGtk_1_1Box.html" title="A base class for box containers.">Gtk::Box</a> and this allows you to later change the direction of the box, when there's no dependencies to <a class="el" href="classGtk_1_1HBox.html" title="Horizontal Box for laying widgets in a horizontal row.">HBox</a> and <a class="el" href="classGtk_1_1VBox.html" title="Vertical Box for laying widgets in a vertical row.">VBox</a> classes.</p>
<p>Use the <a class="el" href="classGtk_1_1Box.html" title="A base class for box containers.">Gtk::Box</a> packing interface to determine the arrangement, spacing, width, and alignment of <a class="el" href="classGtk_1_1HBox.html" title="Horizontal Box for laying widgets in a horizontal row.">Gtk::HBox</a> children.</p>
<p>All children are allocated the same height. </p>
