Please provide more information. What language are you using? What have you tried? A GtkGrid is good enought for you, or are you looking for something more specific?

If you want to find out how EOG does it, then look in the EOG sources.

Perfectly agree with ptomato: nothing better than a full-immersion into sane C code to clean yourself from C++. They use a custom widget derived from GtkBox: git.gnome.org/browse/eog/tree/src/eog-thumb-nav.c

You can emulate the Eye Of Gnome behaviour by using an horizontal GtkBox inside an horizontal GtkScrollbar. Just add your thumbnails to the GtkBox, and that's it:
