Problem solved
Solution : use gtk_label_set_ellipsize
Thanks a lot :-D
I didn't know that I have to set the ellipsize mode to tell the Label
to cut the text when there is not enough space.
I thought that :
gtk_label_set_line_wrap(myLabel, FALSE);
would have been sufficient since the doc say :
"gtk_label_set_line_wrap :
Toggles line wrapping within the GtkLabel widget. TRUE makes it break
lines if text exceeds the widget's size. FALSE lets the text get cut
off by the edge of the widget if it exceeds the widget size."
Thanks again
