    <summary>A container that controls the alignment and size of its child.</summary>
    <remarks>
      <para>An Alignment widget controls the alignment and size of its child widget. It has four settings: <see cref="P:Gtk.Alignment.Xscale" />, <see cref="P:Gtk.Alignment.Yscale" />, <see cref="P:Gtk.Alignment.Xalign" />, and <see cref="P:Gtk.Alignment.Yalign" />.</para>
      <para>The scale settings are used to specify how much the child widget should expand to fill the space allocated to the Alignment. The values can range from 0 (meaning the child doesn't expand at all) to 1 (meaning the child expands to fill all of the available space).</para>
      <para>The alignment settings are used to position the child widget within the available area. The values range from 0 (top or left) to 1 (bottom or right). If the scale settings are both set to 1, (making the child expand), the alignment settings have no effect.</para>
      <para>To add a child to an Alignment, use the <see cref="M:Gtk.Container.Add" /> method from the <see cref="T:Gtk.Container" /> class.</para>
