This problem will not arise if you use GTK_ORIENTATION_HORIZONTAL (but this is not a good solution..) It is a known problem with GtkIconView. I had filed a bug regarding this problem during gtk-2.5 development releases and It was fixed in gtk-2.6.0 [But it was not fully fixed]. [http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=152483] I have also got the same misalignment problem when I ported my software to gtk-2.6.0. It is a strange one and it arises only when the lenth of the text (below the icon) is somewhat larger [In my case it was 28 characters - it also depend on the sum of the widths of all the characters i.e.. the width of the PangoLayout which is used to display the text (I may be wrong)] I didn't hack on his problem. I have just switched my GtkIconView Orientation to GTK_ORIENTATION_HORIZONTAL and everything seemed to work fine for me. I didn't even reopened the bug because I was unable to reproduce it. This bug creeps in when I view the contents of my home folder(in my sample browser which uses GtkIconView) which contains a long-filename. When I renamed that file, I got everything correct. Probably you can reopen the bug (if you wish). > > How can you see some icon (like Duel) take 2 much space...I can't find why. > It is the problem that still exists in the fixed version of gtk+. I believe it is the problem with the algorithm which layouts the icons in the GkIconView.
