in reply to Perl/Tk how to make main window larger than screen

How can I overcome this?

By using another window manager, e.g. olvwm ... it is not Tk failing to display the Main Window with that geometry: the window manager forces it into the screen boundaries.

update: see my desktop

--shmem

_($_=" "x(1<<5)."?\n".q·/)Oo.  G°\        /
                              /\_¯/(q    /
----------------------------  \__(m.====·.(_("always off the crowd"))."·
");sub _{s./.($e="'Itrs `mnsgdq Gdbj O`qkdq")=~y/"-y/#-z/;$e.e && print}
