kroc 1 July 2003 - The idea is to write a table to explain wich command you can use with grid, pack and place for a wanted result.
Actually, I just try various methods to display correctly a table in the wiki.
First style :
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | What do you want to do | pack command | grid command | place command | |------------------------------------|--------------------------|--------------------------|---------------------------| | Display 2 widgets side by side | pack $w1 $w2 -side left | grid $w1 $w2 | To be done | |------------------------------------|--------------------------|--------------------------|---------------------------| | Display 2 widgets on top of | pack $w1 $w2 -side top | grid $w1 | To be done | | each other | | grid $w2 | | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Second style :
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | Display 2 widgets side by side: | | pack command | grid command | place command | |---------------------------------------|--------------------------------------|---------------------------------------| | pack $w1 $w2 -side left | grid $w1 $w2 | To be done | |----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Display 2 widgets on top of each other: | | pack command | grid command | place command | |---------------------------------------|--------------------------------------|---------------------------------------| | pack $w1 $w2 -side top | grid $w1 | To be done | | | grid $w2 | | '----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------'
Third style :
|================|=====================================================================================================| | You want to | Display 2 widgets side by side: | |----------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | pack command | pack $w1 $w2 -side left | |----------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | grid command | grid $w1 $w2 | |----------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | place command | To be done. | |================|=====================================================================================================| | You want to | Display 2 widgets on top of each other: | |----------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | pack command | pack $w1 $w2 -side top | |----------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | grid command | grid $w1 | | | grid $w2 | |----------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | place command | To be done. | |================|=====================================================================================================|
Fourth style :
You want to: Display 2 widgets side by side
You want to: Display 2 widgets on top of each other
