Some commands around there document which options are static and which are not. For OptionMenu, 'labelside' is an static option but is not described as such.

Tix's documentation doesn't help much, so it will require some manual testing. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5961> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
