Is there a technique where I can force a Frame and/or Text widget to a specific width? I understand that width= many times only serves as a hint to Tkinter's layout managers. I'm looking for a width setting technique that's much more forceful than a suggestion :)
I'm using a Text widget with wrap='word' as a multi-line label. I pack this Text widget into a Frame. This Text widget wants to grow to a certain width inspite of setting a specific (char) width for Text and a specific (pixel) width for its parent Frame. The only way I can control my Text widget's width is by placing it in a window with a max width set via .maxsize( width, ... ) and resizing disabled via resizable( False, False ). If I skip the resizable( False, False ) statement, then I get the proper sized Text/Frame *until* I go to resize my window ... as soon as I go to resize my window, it snaps to the width it wants to go to when I don't force maxsize(). BTW: I'm using 32-bit Python 2.7 for Windows. Am I missing something obvious? Thanks, Malcolm
