Re: Changing the GUI dynamically created by glade

[Diego Jacobi <jacobidiego gmail com>]

But you dont need to edit the number of rows in the vbox.
You can make in Glade like this:

topwindow:
- vbox0
- - header
- - vbox1
- - - hbox0
- - - hbox1
- - - hbox2
- - - ...
- - footer

Then get the instance of vbox1 and add as many hbox as you want.

Hope, it helps.
Diego
