Re: [gtkmm] How to fully expand a widget within a window?

["Andreas B. Thun" <abt gmx de>]

Yes, her is my code:

  // Build  object of Current Constraints Browser (VBox)
  m_currentConstraintsBox = manage(new CurrentConstraintsBrowser(cGuiRef, *this));

  // Build object of Constraint Edit Box (VBox)
  m_constraintEditBox = manage(new ConstraintEdit(cGuiRef, *this));

  // Build object of Constraint Table (VBox)
  m_constraintTableBox = manage(new ConstraintTable(cGuiRef, *this));

  // Build object of Constraint Types Browser (VBox)
  m_constraintTypesBrowserBox = manage(new ConstraintTypesBrowser(cGuiRef, *this));

  // Arrange m_currentConstraintsBox and m_constraintTypesBrowserBox in VBoxLeft
  Gtk::VBox *VBoxLeft = Gtk::manage(new Gtk::VBox());
  VBoxLeft->pack_start(*m_currentConstraintsBox);
  VBoxLeft->pack_start(*m_constraintTypesBrowserBox);

  // Add EditBox and ConstraintTableBox to VPaned window
  m_VPanedRight = Gtk::manage(new Gtk::VPaned());
  m_VPanedRight->add1(*m_constraintTableBox);
  m_VPanedRight->add2(*m_constraintEditBox);

  // Add boxes to this VPaned object
  this->add1(*VBoxLeft);
  this->add2(*m_VPanedRight);
