GtkVBox Constructor

GtkVBox ([bool homogeneous = false , [int spacing = 0 ]]);

Creates a new vertical box container designed for packing a single column of child widgets.

The first parameter, homogeneous, is a boolean value which, if set to true, will set each child widget in the GtkVBox to the same height as that of the largest child widget. The second parameter, spacing, sets the minimum spacing between the child widgets, in pixels. Leaving both parameters empty, e.g.

$vbox = &new GtkVBox();
will set the default behaviour of individual sizing and zero spacing.
