How Do I Set The Width Of An Tkinter Entry Widget In Pixels?

I noticed that the width argument for the Tkinter entry widget is in characters, not pixels. Is it possible to adjust the width in pixels?

Solution 1:

You can also use the Place geometry manager:

entry.place(x=10, y=10, width=100) #width in pixels

Solution 2:

You cannot specify the width in pixels using the '-width' option, but there are ways to accomplish the same thing. For example, you could pack an entry in a frame that has no border, turn off geometry propagation on the frame, then set the width of the frame in pixels.

Solution 3:

You can use "ipadx" and "ipady" while packing the "Entry" widget.

You can also use it with "grid".

import tkinter as tkroot= tk.Tke= tk.Entry()
e.pack(ipadx=100, ipady=15)

tk.mainloop()
