resizing children of paned

[Todd Dukes <tdukes ibmoto com>]

I am using a vertical paned window to show two widgets.
The widget on the left is a tree. When the paned window first
comes up the left widget is squished. How can I set the position
of the sash in the paned window. I see child1_size in the _GtkPaned
structure but setting it before showing the widget doesn't seem to work.

I also see handle_xpos but it doesn;t seem to do anything either.

Is there a standard method for doing this?
