Some items get 2 cells for some reason. It is possible that we fail to take padding into account when deciding how much space to give to the text. The relevant code is in gtk_icon_view_calculate_item_size: maximum_layout_width = MAX (item_width, item->pixbuf_width); ... item->width = MAX (item->layout_width + padding, item->pixbuf_width); Maybe we miss a maxmium_layout_width -= padding there.
