Base class for box containers
<!-- ##### SECTION Long_Description ##### -->
<para>
GtkBox is an abstract widget which encapsulates functionallity for a
particular kind of container, one that organizes a variable number of
widgets into a rectangular area. GtkBox currently has two derived
classes, #GtkHBox and #GtkVBox.
</para>
<para>
The rectangular area of a GtkBox is organized into either a single row
or a single column of child widgets depending upon whether the box is
of type #GtkHBox or #GtkVBox, respectively. Thus, all children of a
GtkBox are allocated one dimension in common, which is the height of a
row, or the width of a column.
</para>
<para>
GtkBox uses a notion of <emphasis>packing</emphasis>. Packing refers to
adding widgets with reference to a particular position in a
#GtkContainer. For a GtkBox, there are two reference positions: the
<emphasis>start</emphasis> and the <emphasis>end</emphasis> of the box. For a
#GtkVBox, the start is defined as the top of the box and the end is
defined as the bottom. For a #GtkHBox the start is defined as the
left side and the end is defined as the right side.
</para>
<para>
Use repeated calls to gtk_box_pack_start() to pack widgets into a
GtkBox from start to end. Use gtk_box_pack_end() to add widgets from
end to start. You may intersperse these calls and add widgets from
both ends of the same GtkBox.
</para>
<para>
Use gtk_box_pack_start_defaults() or gtk_box_pack_end_defaults()
to pack widgets into a GtkBox if you do not need to specify the
<structfield>expand</structfield>, <structfield>fill</structfield>, or
<structfield>padding</structfield> attributes of the child to be
added.
</para>
<para>
Because GtkBox is a #GtkContainer, you may also use
gtk_container_add() to insert widgets into the box, and they will be
packed as if with gtk_box_pack_start_defaults(). Use
gtk_container_remove() to remove widgets from the GtkBox.
</para>
<para>
Use gtk_box_set_homogeneous() to specify whether or not all children
of the GtkBox are forced to get the same amount of space.
</para>
<para>
Use gtk_box_set_spacing() to determine how much space will be
minimally placed between all children in the GtkBox.
</para>
<para>
Use gtk_box_reorder_child() to move a GtkBox child to a different
place in the box.
</para>
<para>
Use gtk_box_set_child_packing() to reset the
<structfield>expand</structfield>, <structfield>fill</structfield>,
and <structfield>padding</structfield> attributes of any GtkBox child.
Use gtk_box_query_child_packing() to query these fields.
