Glade might be what you are looking for... it seems to work well on 
Windows and Linux and once you have designed your interface and saved it 
you can do something like this:

--
require 'gtk2'
require 'libglade2'

class SignalHandler
  def method_missing(method, *args)
    puts "#{method}: #{args}"
  end
  def on_QuitMenuItem_activate(*args)
    Gtk.main_quit
  end
end

if $0 == __FILE__
  # initialize gtk
  sigmap = SignalHandler.new
  Gtk.init
  # instantiate the main window
  glade = GladeXML.new('gladetest.glade', nil, 'gladetest')
  window = glade['MainWindow']
  # connect the signal handlers
  window.signal_connect("destroy") { sigmap.on_QuitMenuItem_activate }
  glade.signal_autoconnect_full do |source, target, signal, handler, data|
    source.signal_connect(signal) { sigmap.send(handler, data) }
  end
  # show the main window
  window.show
  # start the main event loop
  Gtk.main  
end
--

Hope this helps,
Tim

It's a pain aligning widgets, especially if a user/customer dictates the layout. I'm still searching maybe someone has found one...
