GTK3 comes with several demo programs, although I
can't be sure your distro
installs them. Try calling gtk3-demo or gtk3-widget-factory at the command
line.
# inxi -S

I'm not sure how your package manager works, but these are not separate packages,
they're minor binaries installed as part of the gtk+ package. Try "which
gtk3-demo"
rather than anything more elaborate.
