Hi folks, I am trying to put together a simple game board window, which packs the game board on the left and a button panel on the right. The top-level container within the window is an HBox. First child of the HBox is the game board, second child is a VBox containing all the buttons. The game board is set to occupy the available space as the HBox gets resized. My goal is to ensure that the top-level window can only be resized to shapes that ensure the game board has an aspect ratio of 1 (i.e., is a square). Now, as I understand the documentation of gtk_window_set_geometry_hints, the following should just do this:
GdkGeometry geom; geom.min_aspect = geom.max_aspect = 1; gtk_window_set_geometry_hints(GTK_WINDOW(main_window), board, &geom, GDK_HINT_ASPECT); However, no matter what I do, whether I do the above when the window gets created or in response to a "realize" signal, whether I provide board or main_window as the second argument, the result is always that the main_window itself is constrained to a square aspect ratio, which due to the button panel means that the board is not square. Any pointers as to what I'm doing wrong? I can put the entire code on pastebin if necessary.
