Hi, Gary.

Maybe I'm not clear on what you want to accomplish. Are you wanting to have a 
numbered list with padding? Screenshots/diagrams/mockups are definitely 
welcome! :-D

How you're doing it seems fine to me. As long as it gets the job done you're 
doing it right :-)

Other alternatives:

gtk_label_set_justify: 
(https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/unstable/GtkLabel.html#gtk-label-set-justify).
 You can use this in addition to setting the widget padding.
