Hello,
We use the grid layout manager, I'm pretty sure throughout (though there's
bound to be one pack lurking). Even on simplified test code it turns out
to be bloody difficult to convince Tcl/Tk to resize a widget the way you
want. (Of course we're not really Tcl/Tk experts, we've tried a few
alternatives but it's possible there is an alternative we've missed.)
