Hello, I am trying to place FileChooserWidget inside the GnomeDruidPageStandard. Everything works, except the file chooser browser is very tiny in the vertical direction. Its vertical size does not follow the window when it is resized. I tried setting its packing properties to EXPAND|FILL and there does not seem to be any good method to do it. The dirty workaround that works is to obtain parent and grandparent of the embedded widget and then use gtk_box_set_child_packing() calls on each of them to set EXPAND and FILL properties. This works because the widgets added with gnome_druid_page_standard_append_item() turn out to be packed inside two nested VBox-es/ This does not sound as a proper way to do things. Is there any proper method that allows to achieve the desired packing? BTW, this behavior is not specific to the FileChooserWidget. Any widget appended to the druid page is not EXPAND|FILL in the vertical direction. It just really sucks for the FileChooserWidget. The inability to set the packing properties from the top level seems like a deficiency to me. Should I file an enhancement bug, or am I missing something obvious?
