Does TKinter Have A Grid ?

Does TKinter have a Grid widget ?
If not (as I assume), what is the alternative ?

Not a grid widget necessarilly but a 'grid' method you can use instead
of pack(). Take a look at
http://www.pythonware.com/library/tk...ction/grid.htm. If
this isn't what you mean, come back.

Pete,

If by grid you mean Table widget or Spreadsheet type widget then no Tk
does not have one (therefore nor does Tkinter) However as luck would
have it there are a couple of extensions to Tk that provide a Table
widget both Tk 'c' based and Tcl based.

for more about this (and lots of other useful stuff!)

http://tkinter.unpythonic.net/wiki/Widgets

It mentions two Table widgets, Tktable and tablelist both have python
(tkinter) wrappers

Mardy..... that's exactly what I was chasing. I have downloaded the
tarball now it's just a matter of working out how I use Tcl with Python -
and I guess it won't hurt if I also use Tk in there as well....

Caution, newbie approaching... I'm trying to come up with a very simple Tkinter test application that consists of a window with a drop-down menu bar at the top and a grid of colored rectangles filling the remainder of the window. Mind you, this is a contrived test application to help me understand Tkinter and Python, not an actual application yet. I've trivially subclassed Tkinter.Canvas into ColorCanvas, added a bunch of ColorCanvases...

Here's a strange one in Tkinter that has me stumped: (I'm running python 2.4 on Suse Linux 9.3 64bit) I'm trying to make a set of Entry widgets with Label widgets to the left of each one, using the grid layout. If I make and grid the Label *before* the Entry then the Entry widget doesn't seem to work - it lets me put the cursor in it, but I can't type! See example code below. Is this just me doing something really really silly, or is...

I'm trying unsuccessfully to do something in Tk that I though would be easy. After Googling this all day, I think I need some help. I am admittedly very novice with Tk (I started with it yesterday), so I am sure I am overlooking something simple.

Hey, I'm pretty new to programming. Been trying to learn using Python. The code I'm struggling with is for my GUI. I'm am having trouble getting this to display the way I want with the grid manager. Can anybody tell me what I am doing wrong? I hope you can tell what look I'm trying to achieve from the code as its hard to explain.

The grid manager is for equally distributing widgets both horizontally and vertically. And I'm not sure that you can realize that window look with Tkinter. You could get close by horizontally packing each widget row in a frame and then vertically packing the frames in the window. But the look...
