I just had some more thoughts on the Counter problem.  Pmw uses the grid 
geometry manager and presumably for the Counter has a sticky='news' option
which would account for what you are seeing, It should be possible to change 
this.

Ok from the source:-

self._counterEntry.grid(column = 1, row = 0, sticky = 'news')

This depends which orientation you are asking for but it's that sticky='news'
that is causing your problem, what to do???  I would start by changing it to 
just sticky='ew' and see what happens.
