[pygtk] Resizing problem with a button widget in a window

[Thierry Lam]

I'm using Glade 2.6.0, if you check the "Palette" window,

- Make sure you are in "GTK+Basic"
- 3rd row from the bottom, there will be 4 icons corresponding to
"Horizontal Box", "Vertical Box", "Table" and then "Fixed Positions"

I believe that "Fixed Positions" is the feature which let you place
widgets wherever you want on a window.

What is that? I've never seen "Fixed Positions" anywhere...

I tried setting "resizable" to "no" in glade for the window, and indeed,
now I can't resize it, vertically or otherwise...

Can you post your glade file?
