To get the size in Gtk 2.x you need to create a workaround as shown in
this examples (code I wrote & used some time ago for a legacy gtk2
project), size allocation returns not what you desire:
http://pastie.org/2892251 & http://pastie.org/2892254

In the gtk3 there is a simple function call: http://pastie.org/2892267

Both work just fine
