Most situations you wouldn't want that conrols heigher than their physical container - harder for the user to use, however if you do need such a thing take a look at the scroll panel, and let us know what you are trying to acheive and most people on the list are more than willing to help, especially if you send in your project zipped for us to run. Don't know how long you've been programming in gambas, but in my experience, having been programming (non professionally I would hasten to add) since the early 1980's, and having programmed in Assembler, various windows gui languages, visual basic, python, wxPython, trips into Java, QT designer, I've found the gambas IDE and language to be one of the simplest and easiest to use fo all the IDE's I've ever encountered. My advice would be don't use GTK, use the QT side of gambas and let it the IDE do all the work for you. Steer clear of sticking things on panels, always use Vbox and Hbox or splits as containers. I've hundreds of forms and modules in my current project linking to a postgres backend with over 30 schemas and hundreds of tables and views and it all works like a charm.
