(Just to remind everyone I am using GTK3)

So I have created a small Vala example of this so we can see some code.

I have done what you said, however the issue is that the TreeView,
despite the setting of a size request of (0, 0) is not scrolled, it just
takes up all the space and can't be resized, (screenshot here)

How can I make it so that the TreeView does not do this, so that it can
be scrolled? (Code is at the end)
