title: TKinter GUI, how do I get Frames to correct size?
body: <p>So here's the issue.  I am programming a GUI using Python's TKinter, and I need the window to be a specific size.  The release version of the program will have the screen settings as <code>root.attributes("-fullscreen", True)</code> so that it's fullscreen and the user won't be able to access any menus.  Said screen will be an 800x480 tablet screen.</p>
  
  <p>Obviously I am programming on a screen much bigger than 800x480, so when I create my tkinter window I am setting <code>root.minsize("800x480")</code> to simulate the environment the program will be in.</p>
  
  <p>As for what is on the GUI, I'll have a series of Buttons and other things.  The window itself is going to be split into two Frames: A Button Frame, and a Visual Frame.  The Button Frame, as the name implies will be a Frame consisting entirely of Buttons for user input, whereas the Visual Frame, again obviously, will just contain visual outputs for the user.</p>
  
  <p>So here is my problem.  I am currently working on the Button Frame, and I am having an issue where the Frame is not sized properly.  Since I don't have the programming done for the Visual Frame yet, I've just been creating two Button Frames and placing them into the root window.  Both the Frames should take up the whole screen, but they aren't.  Here is my code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>import tkinter as tk
  from tkinter import ttk
  
  class ButtonManager(tk.Frame):
  
      def __init__(self, parent, controller):
          tk.Frame.__init__(self, parent)
  
          self.config(background = 'green')
          self.columnconfigure(0, weight = 1)
          self.rowconfigure(0, weight = 1)
  
          lblFrame = LabelFrame(self, controller)
          lblFrame.grid(column = 0, row = 0, sticky = "nsew")
          lblFrame.tkraise()
  
          btnFrame = ButtonFrame(self, controller)
          btnFrame.grid(column = 0, row = 1, sticky = "nsew")
          btnFrame.tkraise()
  
          for child in self.winfo_children():
              child.grid_configure(padx = 5, pady = 5)
  
  class LabelFrame(tk.Frame):
  
      def __init__(self, parent, controller):
          tk.Frame.__init__(self, parent)
  
          self.config(background = 'blue')
  
          lblTitleBar = ttk.Label(self, text = 'TITLE BAR', background = 'grey', font = ("Arial", 20, "bold"))
          lblTitleBar.grid(column = 1, row = 1, columnspan = 4, sticky = "nsew")
  
          lblTextBar = ttk.Label(self, text = 'test text', background = 'grey', font = ("Arial", 16, "bold"))
          lblTextBar.grid(column = 1, row = 2, columnspan = 4, sticky = "nsew")
  
  class ButtonFrame(tk.Frame):
  
      def __init__(self, parent, controller):
          tk.Frame.__init__(self, parent)
  
          self.config(background = 'red')
  
          btn1 = ttk.Button(self, text = '1', command = lambda : print("1"))
          btn1.grid(column = 1, row = 1, columnspan = 2, rowspan = 2, sticky = "nsew")
  
          #Not gonna type out the code for all the buttons, but I have 2 columns, and 6 rows.  
          #The buttons on the 4th and 6th row span the columns of both rows.
          #In total there are 10 buttons
  
          for child in self.winfo_children():
              child.grid_configure(padx = 5, pady = 5)
  
  class Interface(tk.Tk):
  
      def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
          tk.Tk.__init__(self, *args, **kwargs)
  
          container = tk.Frame(self)
          container.grid(column = 0, row = 0, sticky = "nsew")
          container.grid_rowconfigure(0, weight = 1)
          container.grid_columnconfigure(0, weight = 1)
  
          bMan1 = ButtonManager(container, self)
          bMan1.grid(column = 0, row = 0, sticky = "nsew")
          bMan2 = ButtonManager(container, self)
          bMan2.grid(column = 1, row = 0, sticky = "nsew")
  
  interface = Interface()
  interface.minsize(800, 480)
  interface.mainloop()
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>As I said above my issue is that I need each of the ButtonManager objects to take up half the screen each width wise.  However I instead get 2 small-ish boxes and a large grey area.</p>
  
  <p>The random colours are for testing purposes btw :P</p>
  
  <p>EDIT: Had a few copy/paste errors in my code, and it should work as a single file now.  Apologies.</p>
