## Implemented Interfaces

XfceHVBox implements AtkImplementorIface, GtkBuildable and GtkOrientable.

## Description

XfceHVBox is a GtkBox widget that allows the user to change its orientation. It is in fact a combination of GtkHBox and GtkVBox.

If your code depends on Gtk+ 2.16 or later, if it better to use the normal GtkBox widgets in combination with `gtk_orientable_set_orientation()`.

See also: GtkOrientable and GtkBox.
