Thanks, it works.
However adding a GtkApplicationWindow and a GtkButton inside of the component tree is not updating the preview area. Adding a know valid GTK3 .ui file [0] does not update the preview area either.
Seems like the "preview" button is also missing from Glade. Oh well, let's edit XML files afterall. :)
