Yeah, after I posted I had a bit of a think and tried a few things out. I came to the conclusion you really need a widget class that would handle all those kinds of things. The humble <hr> tag has quite a lot of functionality when you start digging deeper. (size by absolute or percent, styles, thickness, etc) But if its just a divider in a text field, underline of overstrike might work as a casual fix. You could handle resize events if needed, but not much more. -- Alan G Author of the Learn to Program web site http://www.alan-g.me.uk/ http://www.amazon.com/author/alan_gauld Follow my photo-blog on Flickr at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/alangauldphotos _______________________________________________ Tkinter-discuss mailing list Tkinter-discuss@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tkinter-discuss
