To Kjell
Thank you, I realised that after posting. It is now fixed.
As a newcomer to this group, I 'm not sure how to close
down this problem.

Don't reparent anything. You shall not replace the message area with your own
box, you shall add your grid to the existing box.
Gtk::Label *label1 = Gtk::manage(new Gtk::Label("some text"));
Gtk::Label *label2 = Gtk::manage(new Gtk::Label("some more
text"));
Gtk::Grid *grid = Gtk::manage(new Gtk::Grid);
Gtk::Box *vbox = dialog.get_message_area();
vbox->add(*grid);
grid->attach(*label1,0,2,1,1);
grid->attach(*label2,1,2,2,1);
