Thanks, I basically came to the same conclusion shortly after writing
my post. I got it working with grid like this:
from Tkinter import *
class AFrame(Frame):
def __init__(self,master,**config):
Frame.__init__(self,master,config)
top= self.winfo_toplevel()
top.columnconfigure(0,weight=1)
top.rowconfigure(0,weight=1)
self.grid(row=0,column=0,sticky="NEWS")
self.rowconfigure(0,weight=0)
self.rowconfigure(1,weight=1)
self.columnconfigure(0,weight=1)
self.l1= Label(self,text="abc",relief="groove")
self.l1.grid(row=0,column=0,sticky="NEW")
self.l2= Label(self,text="abc",relief="groove")
self.l2.grid(row=1,column=0,sticky="NEWS")
af= AFrame(None)
mainloop()
