    <summary>A VBox is a specific type of <see cref="T:Gtk.Container" /> for packing widgets vertically.
<example>
        <code lang="C#">
using System;
using Gtk;

class VBoxTester {
	
	static void Main ()
	{
		Application.Init ();
		Window myWindow = new Window ("VBox Widget");

		VBox myBox = new VBox (false, 4);
		
		//Add the box to a Window container
		myWindow.Add (myBox);
		myWindow.ShowAll ();
		Application.Run ();
	}

	static void AddButton (VBox box)

    <remarks>
      <para>Other ways of laying out widgets include using a horizontal box, (see <see cref="T:Gtk.HBox" />), a table, (see <see cref="T:Gtk.Table" />), button boxes, etc.</para>
      <para>
    	Useful methods for manipulating boxes can be found in the superclass for HBox, <see cref="T:Gtk.Box" />.
