Please post a short script showing the behavior you get. Without this, we cannot help you much. The only thing I can tell you right now is that you obviously don't need to create a Frame via "w = Frame(self)": since you defined your classtitle class as a sub-class of frame, every instance of classtitle is also an instance of Frame, so you can use it as such: >>> from Tkinter import * >>>root = Tk() >>> class MyClass(Frame): ... pass ... >>> o = MyClass(root) >>> o.grid() just works. If you have to add anything in the constructor, do not forget to call the constructor for Frame in it, as in: >>> class MyClass(Frame): ... def __init__(self, *args, **options): ... Frame.__init__(self, *args, **options) ... ## Other stuff... ... If you do that, everything should be OK.
