I don't know GTK and I am also a beginner with Vala, but in general: The Vala bindings are a very thin layer on top of the C bindings, so first you need to find out how to do it in GTK in C (ask in a GTK forum!), and then find the equivalent method in Vala. Check out www.valadoc.org and/or the GTK .vapi file installed on your machine to find the equivalent method. In case of problems, look at the C file generated by valac (-C option) to see whether the C code being generated is what you expect. Vala still has a few rough spots, but if you take the hacker approach, you can still make it work very well for you.
