The biggest problem I have with Glade 3 is the complete lack of good 
tutorials or user guides for using the glade files with Ada.
The link to http://wiki.ada-dk.org/building_gui_with_glade_3 just presents a 
simple ada program which even lacks a simple extension is how to link a 
filechooser dialog or link a Gtk_Textview to my program. Are there such 
tutorials and where can I find them.
I tried to create a filechooser to my program by only using code but I 
cannot find some explanation how to get the link to the parent.

GtkAda is not as complicated as it seems at first glance. You have to learn 
the arborescence of widgets/windows(for me 2 days in learning by doing).
Using glade3 is quite helpful.
Some link that could be useful to you :
Basic stuff to use glade3 : http://wiki.ada-dk.org/building_gui_with_glade_3

GtkAda uses version 2.24 of GTK. So you need Glade3.8 and NOT Glade 3.12 
which is for GTK 3.x.
