<summary>A container which allows you to position widgets at fixed coordinates</summary>
<remarks>
<para>The <see cref="T:Gtk.Fixed" /> widget is a container which can place child widgets at fixed positions and with fixed sizes, given in pixels. <see cref="T:Gtk.Fixed" /> performs no automatic layout management.</para>
<para>For most applications, you should not use this container! It keeps you from having to learn about the other Gtk# containers, but it results in broken applications. With <see cref="T:Gtk.Fixed" />, the following things will result in truncated text, overlapping widgets, and other display bugs:
<list type="bullet"><item><term>Themes, which may change widget sizes.</term></item><item><term>Fonts other than the one you used to write the app will of course change the size of widgets containing text; keep in mind that users may use a larger font because of difficulty reading the default, or they may be using Windows or the framebuffer port of GTK+, where different fonts are available.</term></item><item><term>Translation of text into other languages changes its size. Also, display of non-English text will use a different font in many cases.</term></item></list></para>
<para>In addition, the fixed widget can not properly be mirrored in right-to-left languages such as Hebrew and Arabic. i.e. normally Gtk# will flip the interface to put labels to the right of the thing they label, but it can not do that with <see cref="T:Gtk.Fixed" />. So your application will not be usable in right-to-left languages.</para>
<para>Finally, fixed positioning makes it kind of annoying to add/remove GUI elements, since you have to reposition all the other elements. This is a long-term maintenance problem for your application.</para>
<para>If you know none of these things are an issue for your application, and prefer the simplicity of <see cref="T:Gtk.Fixed" />, by all means use the widget. But you should be aware of the tradeoffs.</para>
