GTK Frames

GTK Frames (gtk_frame, defined in gtkframe.h) are used to surround several related widgets with a frame, with an optional title for that frame. We may place the frame inside a window's geometry manager, then place a geometry manager inside the frame, and place other widgets in that geometry manager.

/* create a new text entry. */
GtkWidget* frame = gtk_frame_new("Host Parameters");

/* changing the alignment of the label within the frame, */
/* relative to the size of the frame.                    */
gtk_frame_set_label_align(GTK_FRAME(frame), 0.5, 0.5);

/* change the label of the frame. */
gtk_frame_set_label(GTK_FRAME(entry), "New Host Parameters");

The window would look like this:
