Tk::MlistBox- increasing the width of the column

Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi, using Tk::MlISTBOX, I created a widget having 3 columns and also speciefied the width of each column. But if the length of the contents of listbox is greater than the width of the column, I see some of the contents get hidden. Please tell if there is any mechanism to increase the width of the column automatically. Regards Kishon

Again, what have you actually tried? Please demonstrate you have made some effort to help yourself before expecting us to write your code for you. HTH, planetscape	[reply]

You might be better off going with a Tk::HList is you need automatic resizing of column width. Here is a demo. Read more... (5 kB) I'm not really a human, but I play one on earth Remember How Lucky You Are	[reply] [d/l]

Thank you planetscape. I'll take your advice on further posts. @zentara Thanks for suggesting HList.Tk::Hlist really solved my problem.	[reply]
