GtkEntry maximizing ?

Hi !

I got another small problem: I have a GtkEntry widget that I put into
a scrollable window (gtk_container_add) because the text in there
might well be longer than the window is wide.

Then I gave the GtkEntry a relatively big max-text number to prevent
cutting the line off too early.

Unfortunately the GtkEntry widget resized itself to fit the scrolled
window, so the scrolled window sees no need to scroll... :-)

I can do a gtk_widget_set_usize(text_field, <big number>, -1) and that
works somewhat, but it is a.) ugly and n.) doesn't assure me that
there is all the text displayed at any point.

So what do I do now ? I couldn't find a "maximize" function or
anything like that... suggestions ?

Later,
	Georg
