If there is only one widget, or if none of the siblings ask to expand, then it is the same as all widgets expanding and extra space will be distributed evenly. By default the halign and valign properties are set to GTK_ALIGN_FILL, which means after the parent has decided on the space to allocate it's child, that child will 'fill' the allocated space. You can either add siblings which do expand to your UI, in which case any extra space will only be given to widgets which do expand, or alternatively you can accept that the single button in the UI you've created will receive all the space, and tell it how to align itself in the allocated space using the haligh/valign properties.
