>The Layout container is similar to the Fixed container except that it
implements an infinite (where infinity is less than 2^32) scrolling
area. The X window system has a limitation where windows can be at
most 32767 pixels wide or tall. The Layout container gets around this
limitation by doing some exotic stuff using window and bit gravities,
so that you can have smooth scrolling even when you have many child
widgets in your scrolling area.</P

>A Layout container is created using:</P
><TABLE

CLASS="PROGRAMLISTING"
>GtkWidget *gtk_layout_new( GtkAdjustment *hadjustment,

></TD
></TR
></TABLE
><P
>As you can see, you can optionally specify the Adjustment objects that
the Layout widget will use for its scrolling.</P
><P
>You can add and move widgets in the Layout container using the
following two functions:</P
