I've no experience with the place layout manager, but the following seems to be what you want: root = Tk() win = Frame(root) win.place(relheight=1, relwidth=1) label_widget = Label(win, text="Welcome to Quote of the Day") label_widget.pack(side=TOP, expand=YES, fill=BOTH) msg_widget = Message( win, anchor=NW, justify=LEFT, width=1000, bd=2, bg="white", relief=SOLID, text=choose_quote()) msg_widget.pack(fill=BOTH) next_button = Button(win, text="Next Quote", command=display_quote) next_button.pack(side=LEFT) quit_button = Button(win, text="QUIT", fg="red", command=quit) quit_button.pack(side=RIGHT) root.geometry("400x100") root.mainloop() _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
