Python tkinter grid manager not working, columns

Question

Python version 2.7 (I know it\'s dated) I have searched throught several answers and haven\'t found a solution. I\'m trying to get this label :

w = Label(root,          


        

Answer 1

You can use grid_columnconfigure to show empty columns. This shows column 2

from Tkinter import *

root = Tk()
root.wm_title("Title:D")

root.geometry('{}x{}'.format(500, 300))

##photo = PhotoImage(file="spaz.gif")
label = Label(root, text="Label 1")
label.grid(row=1, column=1)

root.grid_columnconfigure(2, weight=1)

w = Label(root, text="This label", fg="red", font=("Helvetica", 16))
w.grid(row=5, column=20)

root.mainloop()
