There is least two other options that are different for Labels and Buttons:
>>> b = Button(root)
>>> b.cget('padx')
'3m'
>>> b.cget('pady')
'1m'
>>> l = Label(root)
>>> l.cget('padx')
'1'
>>> l.cget('pady')
'1'
The padx and pady are the distance between the text and the widget
borders. They are larger on a Button.
BTW, you can get all configuration options for any widget with:
for k in widget.configure().keys():
print k, ':', widget.cget(k)
So you can easily compare common options between a standard Label and a
standard Button.
