Hi,

I sent this earlier this week but got no response and now I don't
remember if it reached the list or not. So here goes again:

Using the packer, I want to create labels that have a specific width,
in pixels, not font size. I think the only way to do this is to
encapsulate the label in a frame. But I tried it and changing the width
of the frame has no effect. How do I do this? I read (very briefly) in
Welch's book that there is a way to keep the toplevel window from
resizing itself but I don't remember the syntax (I'm not at home now)
and I didn't see a way to do this directly with vtcl. [Just found it:
it's "pack propagate"] Does anyone have a good idea for me? If it's not
possible to do this using the packer, is there a way to convert my
interface from the packer paradigm to the placer or the grid manager?

Thanks.
