I am trying to create a gallery of images using Gtk.Picture inside a Adw.WrapBox. I want each image to only take as much space as i set with set_size_request , without taking all the horizontal space unnecessarily,
For example, the button widgets within a wrapbox look like this:
button=Gtk.Button(label="Some"+str(random.random()*100))
self.wrapbox.append(button)
But this is what images do within the same thing, the only way I found to constrict the width is via clamps, but that prevents it from expanding at all if I want to expand it later on,
This is a better view of whats happening when I put the Gtk.Picture within a Gtk.Button
This prevents it from working properly within both a wrapbox and flowbox, where I have to use clamps but using that no longer makes the JustifyMode.FILL behavior work, as it needs the children to expandable.
Please point me to the right direction.
