A labelframe is an easy container widget. Its main idea is to act as a room or container for complex window descriptions. This widget has the attributes of a casing plus the capability to display a label.
Here is the simple syntax to create this widget:
w = LabelFrame ( master, option, ... )
| Sr.No. | Option & Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | bg The normal background color is displayed behind the label and indicator. |
| 2 | bd The size of the border around the indicator. Default is 2 pixels. |
| 3 | cursor If you set this option to a cursor name (arrow, dot etc.), the mouse cursor will change to that pattern when it is over the checkbutton. |
| 4 | font The vertical dimension of the new frame. |
| 5 | height The vertical dimension of the new frame. |
| 6 | labelAnchor Specifies where to place the label. |
| 7 | highlightbackground Color of the focus highlight when the frame does not have focus. |
| 8 | highlightcolor Color is shown in the focus highlight when the frame has the focus. |
| 9 | highlightthickness Thickness of the focus highlight. |
| 10 | relief With the default value, relief=FLAT, the checkbutton does not stand out from its background. You may set this option to any of the other styles |
| 11 | text Specifies a string to be displayed inside the widget. |
| 12 | width Specifies the desired width for the window. |
