     This function is typically used when implementing a 'GtkContainer'
     subclass.  Obtains the preferred size of a widget. The container
     uses this information to arrange its child widgets and decide what
     size allocations to give them with 'gtkWidgetSizeAllocate'.

_U_s_a_g_e:

     gtkWidgetSizeRequest(object)

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

'object': ['GtkWidget']  a 'GtkWidget'

_D_e_t_a_i_l_s:

     You can also call this function from an application, with some
     caveats. Most notably, getting a size request requires the widget
     to be associated with a screen, because font information may be
     needed. Multihead-aware applications should keep this in mind.

     Also remember that the size request is not necessarily the size a
     widget will actually be allocated.

     See also 'gtkWidgetGetChildRequisition'.

_V_a_l_u_e:

     A list containing the following elements: 

'requisition': ['GtkRequisition']  a 'GtkRequisition' to be filled in

_A_u_t_h_o_r(_s):
