     <title>Composite Widget Templates</title>
-    <p>From 3.10, GTK+ allows the creation of composite widget templates. The new feature allows composite 
widgets to be defined using XML, which avoids the need to construct them manually. GTK+ is already taking 
advantage of this feature to define its own composite widgets, such as <code>GtkVolumeButton</code> and 
<code>GtkFileChooserDefault</code>. Application authors can use the same capability to make their own, which 
can be done by directly with XML or with the <app>Glade</app> interface builder.</p>
