Basically you need to guesstimate the pixel height of 10 elements and do
this:
 gtk_widget_set_usize (scrolled_window, -1, height)

And be sure the scrolled window is packed into a container such that
it doesn't receive more space than its size request (for vbox and
table, set the "fill" flag to false).
