Set minimum width of column in grid

Question

I'm trying to set a minimum width to a column in a grid, but it is having no effect:

labelProjectId = Tkinter.Label(frame, text="Id", background='white', borderwidth=1, relief="solid")
abelProjectId.grid(row=row, column=0, sticky=("W", "E"))
labelProjectId.grid_columnconfigure(0, minsize=200) # ???

What am I doing wrong?

You are setting the minimum width for the grid inside the label. If you want to affect the column that the label is in, you must call grid_columnconfigure on its master.

So in my case, it looks like: `frame.grid_columnconfigure(0, minsize=200)` – Al Lelopath Oct 17 '18 at 15:08
