Hi,

Working on my current project, I discovered the following behaviour: a widget defined \
before the window in which I try to grid it won't show up, but will take space and \
behave like it is there (blind typing proves it). A widget defined after the griding \
window will come up fine. The following example illustrates my point:

<code>
from Tkinter import *

r=Tk()
l1=Label(r, text='first label')
f=Frame(r)
f.grid()
l1.grid(in_=f, row=0)
l2=Label(r, text='second label')
l2.grid(in_=f, row=1)
</code>

On my system (Gentoo Linux, Python 2.4.1) l1 (defined before f) takes spaces, but is \
invisible, while l2 (defined after f) is OK.

That's the way it is intended to be? How would I grid stuff in dynamically created \
windows?

Thanks for your advice,
Sorin Schwimmer
