  * In this case, gtk_picture_new_for_resource() and gtk_picture_set_resource()
  * should be used.

+ * # sizing the paintable
+ *
+ * You can influence how the paintable is displayed inside the #GtkPicture. 
+ * By turning off GtkPicture::keep-aspect-ratio you can allow paintable
+ * to get stretched. GtkPicture::can-shrink can be unset to make
+ * sure that paintables are never made smaller than their ideal size - but be
+ * careful if you do not know the size of the paintable in use (like when)
+ * displaying user-loaded images) this can cause the picture to grow larger
+ * than the screen. And GtkWidget::halign and GtkWidget::valign can be used
+ * to make sure the paintable doesn't fill all available space but is instead
+ * displayed at its original size.
+ *
  * # CSS nodes
  *
  * GtkPicture has a single CSS node with the name picture.
