IMHO, "abusing" the text widget to do that is quite likely to cause problems in the future. For this use case, I would have used a Canvas with scrollbars containing a Frame where the plots are packed or gridded vertically. The Canvas's scrollregion should then be adjusted each time a plot is added, removed or resized, and you'd still have to use the <Configure> event to resize the Frame to the Canvas's width. But at least, that's what Canvases and Frames are for; the Text widget is for... well, displaying text. Also note that Pmw (http://pmw.sourceforge.net/) has a ScrolledFrame megawidget that just does what you want. > Muchas gracias. You're welcome.
