Re: New to Tkinter GUI building

I think my main questions are:
1. How can I get the Window to be sized the way I want it?
2. How can I get the Scrollbars to fill the side of the text box
instead of being small? (like .pack(fill= tk.Y)

<snip>

I have only posted the code relevant to the GUI.

TIA
Adam


To size the window use Tk's geometry method

self.top.geometry("%dx%d%+d%+d" % (800, 600, 0, 0)) # (width, height, x, y)

For the scrollbar to fill vertically, use the sticky grid option.

self.scrlr1.grid(row=0, column=1, sticky=tk.N + tk.S)

Hope this helps.
