Description

     The GtkEventBox is used to capture events for widgets that do not
     have their own window.

     Most widgets inherit the window property from GtkWidget, which
     makes it possible to use those widgets interactively. However, some
     widgets are flagged as GTK_NO_WINDOW at source, because there is
     rarely a need to capture events crossing those widgets.

     The following widgets and their descendants fall into this category
     and need to be packed into an event box before they can be made to
     respond to user activity:

     GtkAlignment
     GtkArrow
     GtkBox
     GtkCheckButton
     GtkFrame
     GtkImage
     GtkItem
     GtkLabel
     GtkPacker
     GtkPixmap
     GtkScale
     GtkScrolledWindow
     GtkSeparator
     GtkTable
     GtkToggleButton - alters according to its draw indicator status!

Constructor

   GtkEventBox (void);

     -- Creates a means of capturing events where there is none.
