http://gtk.org/api ofcourse ! :D

properties are documented on thier repsective widgets, each widget
also ofcourse inherits the properties of its parent.

now, which "expand" property do you speak of ? packing properties
are a little different and need to be accessed via the <child> xml
semantics, thier defaults may be set, and some widgets may also provide
preffered defaults when packed into certain containers (see 
"packing-defaults").
