Hi Monks,
Please have a look in the code below.
I'm trying to have a scrollable table with fixed headers.Each cell of the table is a canvas, whose size may vary. This is a reduced version, containing only fixed size canvases with no items on them.
I expect that if the canvases are too high, the scrollbar on the right side will be activated. But if I enlarge the height of the canvases (change $graph_height to 800), they disappear...
Please advise!
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use warnings;
use Tk;
use Tk::Table;

my $graph_width=300;
my $graph_height=700;
#my $graph_height=800;

my $title_c;
my $group;
my $canvas;
my $table;
my @group_names=('A','B');
my $col=0;


my $graph_win = MainWindow->new( );

$graph_win->withdraw;

$table= $graph_win->Table(
        -rows => 2,
        -columns => 2,
        -scrollbars => 'e',
        -fixedrows => 1,
        -fixedcolumns => 0
        )->pack(
        -expand => 1,
        -fill => 'both',
        );


foreach $group (@group_names){
        $title_c=$table->Label(
                -text => $group,
                -relief => 'groove',
                -font   => "{Arial} 15 bold",
                -borderwidth => 2,
                );
        $table->put(0,$col, $title_c);

        $col++;
}

$col=0;
foreach $group (@group_names){
        $canvas = $table->Scrolled("Canvas",
                -scrollbars => 's',
                -width    => 300,
                -height   => $graph_height,
                -background => 'white',
                -borderwidth => 2,
                -relief => 'groove',
                -scrollregion => [0,0,$graph_width,$graph_height]
                );
        $table->put(1,$col++, $canvas);
}
$graph_win->deiconify();
$graph_win->raise();
$graph_win->geometry('1000x800+10+10');
