Yes, I'm using Glade.... and I knew there was a better way to do this :) Thanks a lot.
So i'll try to set padding for my labels. One more thing: what about if my problem now is with vertical alignment? i.e. my labels are so close to the top border of the window.

I don't use glade myself but it should be perfectly possible to specify the padding space somewhere in the widget properties editor. Hope this helps.. - Daniel Pekelharing On Tue, 2006-03-21 at 12:13 +0100, Fernando Apesteguía wrote: > Hi, > > I'm creating a GUI with Gtk.
