I know how to find the number of items. Just like you show. No, this is not the size of the box. I have maybe 2000 entries. I can set the current selection, etc with code like this:
self.lb.select_clear(ACTIVE) # needed to un-hilite existing selection self.lb.activate(x) # make new item active self.lb.see(x-10) # force display from 10 previous lines self.lb.select_set(x) # and select the new item If the listbox is 20 lines high, this works perfectly. But, if it is a different size, it doesn't center. In my case I don't know the size of box, so the "-10" is a not-to-intelligent guess. Thanks.
