I suspect this is just a MacOS behaviour, if not then it is a Tk bug. If you really need to enforce the width, you could tell it to expand horizontally in the layout. An example of this would be as follows: tk.Frame(root, height=1, width=300).pack() tk.OptionMenu(root, tk.StringVar(), "test").pack(fill="x") A bit more detail on the Tk side of things: tkinter doesn't actually use `tk_optionMenu` and instead creates its own menubutton and menu. The issue with the menubutton width not changing also exists when working directly with Tk (`pack [menubutton .p -width 100]`). However, the same behaviour can be shown when using `tk_optionMenu`, so changing tkinter to use that instead would not fix this issue. ---------- nosy: +epaine, serhiy.storchaka _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue42977> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
