Hi there, Sorry for the bump, but there's also another issue that's frustrating me. If I compile the test application with the gtk_widget_set_hexpand line uncommented I see more unexpected behaviour resizing the window horizontally.
Widening the window works as expected - except for the vertical padding as noted below - but when I make the window narrower again, the viewport (and the GtkTextViews inside it) seems to stay the same size, suddenly requiring you to scroll horizontally to see all the text (I had hoped for the GtkTextView to automatically resize to the new width of the window). This happens regardless of what policy I set for the horizontal scrollbar. I'm sure I must be doing something fundamentally wrong as it seems this should all be so simple; unfortunately I can't figure it out and it's been driving me crazy for a couple of weeks now! I hope I don't have to roll back to Gtk+ 2 where everything used to work for me! So if anyone can offer any help whatsoever, I'd really appreciate it!
