Hi,
I have created a window, which has a scrolled frame in it with a grid of canvases, which I added with the grid geometry manager.
The problem is that when I use the gridSize method, I get 0 for both number of rows and columns. When I replaced the 'Scrolled' Frame with a regular Frame the problem is solved.
Can anyone think of a reason (or work around?)
Here's an example code: 
use Tk;
use Tk::Pane;

$mw = MainWindow->new;
$graph_pane = $mw->Scrolled('Frame',
        -scrollbars => 'osoe',
        )->pack(
        -fill => 'both',
        -expand => 1,
        );
for $i (0 .. 2){
        for $j (0 .. 3){
                $c=$graph_pane->Canvas(
                        -width    => 250,
                        -height   => 100,
                        -background => 'white',
                        )->grid(
                        -row => $i,
                        -sticky => "nsew",
                        -column => $j,
                        );
                $c->createText(10,10,
                        -text => $i . ',' . $j,
                        -font   => "{Arial} 8 bold",
                        );
        }
}
($col, $row) = $graph_pane->gridSize( );
warn($col);
warn($row);

MainLoop;

** if you use: 
$graph_pane = $mw->Frame(

instead of: 
$graph_pane = $mw->Scrolled('Frame',
        -scrollbars => 'osoe',

[download]
problem is solved! - but no scrollbar...

Thanks!
