I think this is corect answer : http://www.gtk.org/api/2.6/gtk/GtkScrolledWindow.html#gtk-scrolled-window-add-with-viewport "The viewport scrolls the child by moving its GdkWindow, and takes the size of the child to be the size of its toplevel GdkWindow. This will be very wrong for most widgets that support native scrolling"
