Thank you very much, Rob. > Hi Rob, I'm not sure what you mean with "beveled/raised edges" , maybe setting the widget's relief to GROOVE or RIDGE does what you want? Rounded corners are much more complicated; you will probably need the shape extension for Tk which adds non-rectangular window support to Tk. A version of shape that works with unix systems is included in the tkdnd drag and drop extension (http://sourceforge.net/projects/tkdnd); I wrote a Tkinter wrapper for tkdnd (http://www.8ung.at/klappnase/TkinterDnD/TkinterDnD.html) that makes it possible to use tkdnd from python. If you need windows support, you can try a newer version of shape (http://www.cs.man.ac.uk/~fellowsd/tcl/shapeidx.html) that seems to support windows platforms, too.
