Your meaning here is unclear. How is it possible to have "a window created inside a text widget"? > then resize the text widget (via its container), the canvas and > its container windows do not resize. So I need to resize the window > that the canvas is embedded in.

Do you want to detect when a window is resized or do you want to resize a window programatically. If the former, bind the Toplevel to '<Configure>'. E.g. from Tkinter import * def config(t): def _r(e, t=t): geom = e.widget.wm_geometry() geom = geom.split('+')[0] t.wm_geometry(geom) print 'resized %s to %s' % (t, geom) return _r tk = Tk() tk.title('resize me') t2 = Toplevel(tk) t2.title('I get resized') tk.bind('<Configure>', config(t2)) Is that cool or what?
