in thread How to resize mainwindow automatically

I FORGOT TO ATTATCH THESE LINES OF CODE AT THE BEGINNING...SORRY FOR THE INCONVENIENCE
# Creating the Main Window $mainwindow = MainWindow->new(-title => " Select Fuel Tank for $Fu +el_Type Fuel ");
$mainwindow->configure( -background=> $mainframes_background);
# Defines the Geometry for the Main Window $mainwindow->geometry("400x300"); $mainwindow->maxsize(400,500; $mainwindow->minsize(400,300);

    You really have many many issues here, first, your debugging would be a lot easier if you write these two line at the top of every Perl program..
    use strict; use warnings
    a second thing, your indentation style is extremely hard to follow.
    a third issue, you're mixing many grid managers, which may not be the best thing to do, look at the end of the bottom of the second block of code you posted and you'd see that there's a "pack" followed by a "place".. take a look at "Tk::Adjuster" documentation...I really want to spend a great deal of time solving this but you may want to consider these advices I just gave you In addition to the other valuable advices that all the monks replying to your post have contributedd.

    Hmm. If you set the max size to 400,500, then that will make it mighty difficult for the window to expand.
    Missing a close bracket will also make it mighty difficult to compile.
