You need to divide your top-level window some more with other
containers.

Try putting some vboxes, hboxes, and tables around the place first.

Most of the time you won't be specifying widget sizes, as gtk is
designed to automatically resize stuff, based on what you specify for
each widgets' 'expand' and 'fill' properties. This way, the user can
resize a window and everything dynamically resizes to claim new space,
or shrinks to make everything fit.
