Maybe this can help (written for GTK3):
https://wiki.gnome.org/HowDoI/CustomWidgets

First question: Are you using GTK3 or GTK4?

You want to add self->main_box to self (gtk_container_add). With GTK3, you would derive from a GtkBin, you can’t add children to GtkWidget in GTK3.

In GTK4 deriving from GtkWidget is fine.

You don’t need to override widget_class->realize at all, you don’t need gtk_widget_set_has_window().

I use GTK3.

So can I make custom widget which contains another widgets in GTK3?
