Hello,
A friend is having an issue with Tkinter that I'm not able to help him
with, so I'm posting here.
He'd like to put something inside of a frame without the frame
automagickally resizing.
Example:
from Tkinter import *
root = Tk()
# with these 2 frames by themselves, they are the
# size requested (the second one is "elastic")
f01 = Frame( root, width="40px", height="60px",
background="#FFE0E0",
borderwidth=1,
relief=GROOVE,
)
f01.pack( side=LEFT )
f02 = Frame( root, width="40px", height="60px",
background="#E0FFE0",
borderwidth=1,
relief=GROOVE,
)
f02.pack( side=LEFT, fill=Y )
# uncomment this, and the left frame changes its size to this
#l01 = Label( f01, text="01",
# background="#E0E0FF",
# borderwidth=2,
# relief="ridge",
# )
#l01.pack( side=TOP, expand=Y, fill=BOTH )
# and this doesn't help either
#s01 = Frame( f01 )
#s01.pack( side=TOP, expand=Y, fill=BOTH )
root.mainloop()
Any suggestions on how to maintain the size of the frame when you pack
a label into it like this?
Thanks,
Mike
