Collapsable toolbox categories.

["Chris Garrett" <garrett91 hotmail com>]

Hi,

In the Gnome HIG, it suggests that toolboxes with a large number of icons 
should be divided into categories.  Each category should have a label at the 
top, and a collapsing arrow. Clicking the label or the arrow toggles the 
category between a collapsed and uncollapsed state.

Although I am not writing a Gnome app (I only use GTK libraries), I think 
that this sounds like a good idea.

How would I implement this?  Is there a collapsable (sp?) container which 
deals with this sort of thing easily, or should I use some other method?

The HiG bit about tables (with a screenshot) can be seen at:

Best regards,

Chris.
