Thanks. The size request worked. However there is an issue. Say I create my label to cover all the GtkFixed and set its text justification to left. What I expect to see is something like:
/--------------------------\ | | |line 1 is longer | |line2 | | | \--------------------------/ but what I see is /--------------------------\ | | | line 1 is longer | | line2 | | | \--------------------------/ It seems that first Gtk computes the required minimum size of the label. Centers a rectangle in the "outer label" and draws my contents be it left justified inside the small minimal size rectangle. Is there a way to change this behaviour? Furthermore how can I achieve vertical alignment?
