Ok so I'm not to bright sometimes Well if you want this kinda control I suggest you go ahead and subclass toplevel, but the simple answer before running
root.mainloop() make a call to root.geometry(geometryString) geoometrystring is in the format WxH+X+Y - you may hve to do some screen calcs first to get the right numbers. ie "50x100+50+50" create a 50pix by 100 pix window offset 50 from the top and 50 from the left. To my mind, better to subclass toplevel and set everything in there - but's mostly stylistic preference for something this simple. And while I'm making suggestions ;) Try wxPython. I used tKinter for about 3 months before tossing it in frustration when I wanted to do somtheing "slick" , but I have a lot of fondness for some quick and dirty UI's I did in tKinter a ways back. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
