Tix is barely documented even there! I was actually considering writing a book to document the Tix toolkit. If its now deprecated I won't bother!! :-) > How does tix.Grid differ from the > standard grid geometry manager (.grid() method on widgets)? It's a widget not a window manager (although Tix does provide a new "Form" WM, but I've never used it). The grid is a table or simple spreadsheet control. Most GUI toolkits have one but Tkinter doesn't... yet... >> The most important and commonly used seem to have been >> incorporated into the latest ttk, but not all of them. > > Which ones are missing?
