Unexpected behavior of GtkBox Container

[Pavel Fischer]

Hello,

in my software I use Gtk UI (created with Glade) and have found some issues. I want to have a GtkBox with fixed width, but all childs must use whole space of the container, so i set a "hexpand"-Property to true. The result is, that the Box ignore the width value.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. The issue you are reporting is an upstream one and it would be nice if somebody having it could send the bug to the developers of the software by following the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream/GNOME. If you have done so, please tell us the number of the upstream bug (or the link), so we can add a bugwatch that will inform us about its status. Thanks in advance.
