Hi,

I have GUI script in perl/tk which will create a label, entry & a browser button, to select a path. later i have 3 more buttons for "run" "refersh" & "exit".

Problem statement: I want the last 3 buttons to be in a newline. I am using pack and not grid. Need help on this.

Pasting the code

    #### Label & Entry creation to select the test path
    $frm_name = $fsdb_tab -> Frame()->pack(-side => 'left', -fill => '
+both', -anchor => 'n');
    $lab = $frm_name -> Label(-text=>"TEST PATH:")->pack(-side => 'lef
+t');
    $ent = $frm_name -> Entry(-width=>80)->pack(-side => 'left');
    $ent->focus;    

    #GUI building for Browser push buttons
    $but= $frm_name -> Button(  -text=>"Browse",
         -command =>\&browser_button,
         -activebackground => 'lightblue', 
         -activeforeground => 'black',
         -relief => 'raised',
         -borderwidth =>8 
       )->pack(-side => 'right');

    #### Button for "Run FSDB" 
    $final_frame = $fsdb_tab -> Frame(-borderwidth => '5', -relief => 
+'ridge')->pack();
    $run_fsdb = $final_frame -> Button(  -text=>"Run FSDB",
         -command => \&run_fsdb,
         -activebackground => 'lightblue', 
         -activeforeground => 'black',
         -relief => 'raised',
         -borderwidth => 8,
         -width => 10
      )->pack(-side => 'left', -expand => 0);

    #### Button for "Refresh"
    $refresh_frame = $fsdb_tab -> Frame(-borderwidth => '5', -relief =
+> 'ridge')->pack();
    $refresh_fsdb = $refresh_frame -> Button(  -text=>"Refresh",
         -command => \&refresh_fsdb,
         -activebackground => 'lightblue', 
         -activeforeground => 'black',
         -relief => 'raised',
         -borderwidth => 8,
         -width => 10
      )->pack(-side => 'left', -expand => 0);


    #### Button for "EXIT"
    $exit_frame = $fsdb_tab -> Frame(-borderwidth => '5', -relief => '
+ridge')->pack();
    $exit_fsdb = $exit_frame -> Button(  -text=>"EXIT",
         -command => sub { $mw->destroy; exit; },
         -activebackground => 'lightblue', 
         -activeforeground => 'black',
         -relief => 'raised',
         -borderwidth => 10,
         -width => 10
      )->pack(-side => 'right');
