This example populates a flow box with buttons, and makes the
flow box children unfocusable, with the intention that the focus
moves directly between the buttons. Currently, keynav does not
work at all in this case.
GtkFlowBox is a container that its children in a reflowing
grid, which can be oriented horizontally or vertically.
It is similar to GtkListBox in that the children can
be sorted and filtered, and by requiring a dedicated child
widget type, GtkFlowBoxChild. It is similar to GtkTreeView
in that is supports a full set of selection modes, including
rubberband selection.
This is the culmination of work that has happened in the
egg-list-box module, and earlier in libegg. The origins of
this code are the EggSpreadTable in libegg, which was written
by Tristan van Berkom. It was moved to egg-list-box and
renamed EggFlowBox by Jon McCann, and I gave it some finishing
touched in the flowbox-improvements branch of that module.
