Note that "resizable" is an alias to wm_resizable. All these methods starting with wm_ actually mean: "Please window manager, can you, if you don't mind, and if you are feeling like a good wm, do this favor -- insert favor here -- for this window? Please ?". And there is no guarantee that every wm will answer "yes". > > BUT, the resizable attribute works if i add the following line > main_w.maxsize(width= 1000, height = 3000) > where the values are random but should not be set to width = 0, height =0, > in which case it (widget.resizable(width = False, height = False)) does not > function. > > > So is this a bug, or am i doing something wrong here ? :O > > Regards > Thanks > arms > > _______________________________________________ > Tkinter-discuss mailing list > Tkinter-discuss@python.org > http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tkinter-discuss > > -- -- Guilherme H.
