Columns are indexed from 0 to n-1, the rightmost column in the code above is 3 for the list widget, so you have 4 columns already. Add another column for the list widget's columnspan=2 and you end up with 5 columns in total. Therefore self.label1.grid(row=1, column=0, columnspan=5, sticky=W) should accomplish the desired layout. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - [email protected] To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
