Sorry if it was a bit confusing. I do have an 800 x 600 Tk window with a canvas that defaults to 300 x 300 if the image is larger than that, or is sized at the graphic's actual size if it's smaller than 300 x 300. (Yes I did mean it was 700 x 200)

I do know that the height and width are coming in correctly as I'm pulling those values right from the gif file itself.

You're on the mark with the -scrollbars => 'sow' I know that, however when I tried to use -scrollbars => 'osow' both scrollbars disappeared. That's why I thought to put them as seperate items.

Thanks for the idea though. Back to the books I guess. :)

There is no emoticon for what I'm feeling now.
