    <title>Useful methods for a ScrolledWindow widget</title>
    <list>
      <item><p><code>set_policy(hscrollbar_policy, vscrollbar_policy)</code> where each of the arguments is one of <code>Gtk.Policy.AUTOMATIC, Gtk.Policy.ALWAYS, Gtk.Policy.NEVER</code> regulates whether the horizontal and vertical scrollbars should appear: with <code>AUTOMATIC</code> they appear only if needed, <code>ALWAYS</code> and <code>NEVER</code> are self-explanatory.</p></item>
      <item><p><code>add_with_viewport(widget)</code> is used to add the Gtk.Widget <code>widget</code> without native scrolling capabilities inside the window.</p></item>
      <item><p><code>set_placement(window_placement)</code> sets the placement of the contents with respect to the scrollbars for the scrolled window. The options for the argument are <code>Gtk.CornerType.TOP_LEFT</code> (default: the scrollbars are on the bottom and on the right of the window), <code>Gtk.CornerType.TOP_RIGHT, Gtk.CornerType.BOTTOM_LEFT, Gtk.CornerType.BOTTOM_RIGHT</code>.</p></item>
      <item><p><code>set_hadjustment(adjustment)</code> and <code>set_vadjustment(adjustment)</code> set the Gtk.Adjustment <code>adjustment</code>. This is the representation of a value with a lower and upper bound, together with step and page increments, and a page size, and it is constructed as <code>Gtk.Adjustment(value, lower, upper, step_increment, page_increment, page_size)</code> where the fields are of type <code>float</code>. (Note that <code>step_increment</code> is not used in this case, it can be set to <code>0</code>.)</p></item>
