abstract base class defining a widget that encapsulates functionality for a
particular kind of container, one that organizes a variable number of
widgets into a rectangular area. <a class="link" href="class-gtkbox.html" title="gtk.Box"><code class="classname">gtk.Box</code></a> currently has
two families of derived classes: <a class="link" href="class-gtkhbox.html" title="gtk.HBox"><code class="classname">gtk.HBox</code></a> and <a class="link" href="class-gtkvbox.html" title="gtk.VBox"><code class="classname">gtk.VBox</code></a> being one,
and <a class="link" href="class-gtkhbuttonbox.html" title="gtk.HButtonBox"><code class="classname">gtk.HButtonBox</code></a> and <a class="link" href="class-gtkvbuttonbox.html" title="gtk.VButtonBox"><code class="classname">gtk.VButtonBox</code></a> --
the other.</p><p>The rectangular area of a <a class="link" href="class-gtkbox.html" title="gtk.Box"><code class="classname">gtk.Box</code></a> is organized
into either a single row or a single column of child widgets depending upon
whether the box is of type <a class="link" href="class-gtkhbox.html" title="gtk.HBox"><code class="classname">gtk.HBox</code></a> or <a class="link" href="class-gtkvbox.html" title="gtk.VBox"><code class="classname">gtk.VBox</code></a>,
respectively. Thus, all children of a <a class="link" href="class-gtkbox.html" title="gtk.Box"><code class="classname">gtk.Box</code></a> are allocated
one dimension in common, which is the height of a row, or the width of a
column.</p><p><a class="link" href="class-gtkbox.html" title="gtk.Box"><code class="classname">gtk.Box</code></a>
uses a notion of packing. Packing refers to adding widgets with reference to
a particular position in a <a class="link" href="class-gtkbox.html" title="gtk.Box"><code class="classname">gtk.Container</code></a>. For a
<a class="link" href="class-gtkbox.html" title="gtk.Box"><code class="classname">gtk.Box</code></a>, there
are two reference positions: the start and the end of the box. For a <a class="link" href="class-gtkvbox.html" title="gtk.VBox"><code class="classname">gtk.VBox</code></a>, the start is
defined as the top of the box and the end is defined as the bottom. For a
<a class="link" href="class-gtkhbox.html" title="gtk.HBox"><code class="classname">gtk.HBox</code></a> the
start is defined as the left side and the end is defined as the right
side.</p><p>Repeated calls to <a class="link" href="class-gtkbox.html#method-gtkbox--pack-start" title="gtk.Box.pack_start"><code class="methodname">pack_start</code>()</a>
pack widgets into a <a class="link" href="class-gtkbox.html" title="gtk.Box"><code class="classname">gtk.Box</code></a> from start to
end. The <a class="link" href="class-gtkbox.html#method-gtkbox--pack-end" title="gtk.Box.pack_end"><code class="methodname">pack_end</code>()</a>
method adds widgets from end to start. You may intersperse these calls and
add widgets from both ends of the same <a class="link" href="class-gtkbox.html" title="gtk.Box"><code class="classname">gtk.Box</code></a>.</p><p>Because <a class="link" href="class-gtkbox.html" title="gtk.Box"><code class="classname">gtk.Box</code></a> is a <a class="link" href="class-gtkcontainer.html" title="gtk.Container"><code class="classname">gtk.Container</code></a>,
you may also use <a class="link" href="class-gtkcontainer.html#method-gtkcontainer--add" title="gtk.Container.add"><code class="methodname">add</code>()</a> to
insert widgets into the box, and they will be packed as if with the <a class="link" href="class-gtkbox.html#method-gtkbox--pack-start-defaults" title="gtk.Box.pack_start_defaults"><code class="methodname">pack_start</code>()</a>
method. Use <a class="link" href="class-gtkcontainer.html#method-gtkcontainer--remove" title="gtk.Container.remove"><code class="methodname">remove</code>()</a>
to remove widgets from the <a class="link" href="class-gtkbox.html" title="gtk.Box"><code class="classname">gtk.Box</code></a>.</p><p>The <a class="link" href="class-gtkbox.html#method-gtkbox--set-homogeneous" title="gtk.Box.set_homogeneous"><code class="methodname">set_homogeneous</code>()</a>
method specifies whether or not all children of the <a class="link" href="class-gtkbox.html" title="gtk.Box"><code class="classname">gtk.Box</code></a> are forced to
get the same amount of space.</p><p>The <a class="link" href="class-gtkbox.html#method-gtkbox--set-spacing" title="gtk.Box.set_spacing"><code class="methodname">set_spacing</code>()</a>
method determines how much space will be minimally placed between all
children in the <a class="link" href="class-gtkbox.html" title="gtk.Box"><code class="classname">gtk.Box</code></a>.</p><p>The <a class="link" href="class-gtkbox.html#method-gtkbox--reorder-child" title="gtk.Box.reorder_child"><code class="methodname">reorder_child</code>()</a>
method moves a <a class="link" href="class-gtkbox.html" title="gtk.Box"><code class="classname">gtk.Box</code></a> child to a
different place in the box.</p><p>The <a class="link" href="class-gtkbox.html#method-gtkbox--set-child-packing" title="gtk.Box.set_child_packing"><code class="methodname">set_child_packing</code>()</a>
method resets the expand, fill, and padding attributes of any <a class="link" href="class-gtkbox.html" title="gtk.Box"><code class="classname">gtk.Box</code></a> child. Use the
