the order dipends by the order in wich the widgets are packed using a geometry
manager (eg. pack) in the source file.

you can get results with the geometry method:

offset = 50
mywidget.geometry("+%d+%d" % (parent.winfo_rootx()+offset,
	parent.winfo_rooty()+offset))

where parent is the parent widget. Change the offset as you need.
