No, the geometry method is used to set the size of your main application
window. This is what I understood from your first question, and please
correct me if I am wrong. The grid method (or the pack method) are used
to layout the widgets.
In other words, after line 8 of the code you provided you would add this
line:
self.top.geometry("%dx%d%+d%+d" % (800, 600, 0, 0))
Hope this helps.
