The layout/spacing can be altered by theprogrammer, or if desired, by the user to alter the 'feel' of aprogram to a small degree.</para><para>A #GtkHButtonBox is created with gtk_hbutton_box_new(). Buttons arepacked into a button box the same way widgets are added to any othercontainer, using gtk_container_add(). You can also usegtk_box_pack_start() or gtk_box_pack_end(), but for button boxes boththese functions work just like gtk_container_add(), ie., they pack thebutton in a way that depends on the current layout style and onwhether the button has had gtk_button_box_set_child_secondary() calledon it.</para><para>The spacing between buttons can be set with gtk_box_set_spacing(). Thearrangement and layout of the buttons can be changed withgtk_button_box_set_layout().</para><!-- ##### SECTION See_Also ##### --><para><variablelist><varlistentry><term>#GtkBox</term><listitem><para>Used to pack widgets into button boxes.</para></listitem></varlistentry><varlistentry><term>#GtkButtonBox</term><listitem><para>Provides functions for controlling button boxes.</para></listitem></varlistentry><varlistentry><term>#GtkVButtonBox</term><listitem><para>Pack buttons vertically</para></listitem></varlistentry></variablelist></para><!-- ##### SECTION Stability_Level ##### --><!-- ##### STRUCT GtkHButtonBox ##### --><para>GtkHButtonBox does not contain any public fields.</para><!-- ##### FUNCTION gtk_hbutton_box_new ##### --><para>Creates a new horizontal button box.</para>@Returns: a new button box #GtkWidget.<!-- ##### FUNCTION gtk_hbutton_box_get_spacing_default ##### --><para>Retrieves the current default spacing for horizontal button boxes.
