Well, I don't understand what you are both talking about, but child properties work normally. That is child properties of subclasses of GtkContainer that are registered with gtk_container_class_install_child_property() and that can be found by gtk_container_class_list_child_properties() inspection. The syntax for in-line docs is identical to normal properties: /** * GtkTable:top-attach: * * The row number to attach the top of a child widget to. * * Some more documentation... **/ gtk_container_class_install_child_property(container_class, ... In fact the syntax is identical to the extent that you get into troubles when you have a normal property and a child property of the same name. If you want support for a new kind of child properties of a new kind of containers, you have to hack gtk-doc. I did not try it, but if confusion between GtkContainer child properties and YourContainer child properties is not possible, it should suffice to modify #ifdef GTK_IS_CONTAINER_CLASS if (!child_prop && GTK_IS_CONTAINER_CLASS (class)) { properties = gtk_container_class_list_child_properties (class, &n_properties); child_prop = TRUE; continue; } #endif in gtkdoc-scangobj.in to obtain GtkContainer child properties for GtkContainers and YourContainer child properties for YourContainers. The rest of gtk-doc little cares where the child property came from and you will simply get it listed in Child properties.
