Any way to control GTK widget positioning? ( ReWorked it )

[sunburnt]

I have buttons with labels at the side for info about the button.
I tried just putting all the info on the buttons... looks like crud.
I tried putting the buttons & labels in frames in all combinations, it lines up one way or the other, but not both.
GTK widgets are nice, but the jumbly hodge podge way it positions them is really ugly & unacceptable.

There's a verticle array of the button & label set below, 1 for each drive, GTK centers each one so nothing lines up.

The buttons & their adjoining labels won't line up evenly no matter what I do.
Is there a way to absolutely position, or left justify the widgets in a frame, or some other positioning method?
OR... should I give up on GTK & start anew with tcl/tk?
I like MU's wxBasic script, but I'm guessing that it uses GTK for GUIs so the problem would be the same.

MU; if your wxBasic has better control of the widgets it uses, let me know & I'll gladly use it.

I'm reworking the app. using a table widget in place of the buttons, I think it'll work though it's not quite what I wanted.
Oh well... sacrafices must be made, if I can get it to work at least it will have all the functionality of the buttons.
