Description Thomas Harty 2014-10-29 09:12:38 UTC 
The documentation for Gtk::Grid::attach_next_to (https://developer.gnome.org/gtkmm/stable/classGtk_1_1Grid.html#ae42f1ae2fc23e16880c51438afa8fbcf) incorrectly states that sibling can be set to 0 to add the new widget to the beginning/end of the Grid. This is presumably just an incorrect translation of the Gtk docs. 

Since this is a fairly useful convenience function, it might be worth adding a new method to Gtk::Grid to do this. Something like

void attach_next_to(Widget& child, PositionType side, int width, int height)

or 

void attach_at_edge(Widget& child, PositionType side, int width, int height)

Otherwise, it would at least be good to fix the docs.

I have pushed a patch that adds
  void attach_next_to(Widget& child, PositionType side, int width, int height)
and fixes the documentation.
