Widgets are dynamically sized, which is a good thing,  but I think I see
what you are getting at.   If you have an Entry that should only be of a
certain length try setting the WidthChars property.

You capture the button press event,  and specify "GLib.ConnectBefore" on
the event handler -

/* @brief Handle click events on the tree views */
[GLib.ConnectBefore]
protected void OnButonPressEvent(
  object sender, 
  ButtonPressEventArgs args)
{
...
}

You can get what was clicked from the TreeIter;  this was discussed not
to long ago on this list.
