in my GUI I used two panedwindow widgets with two inside frames for each of them. All works as I axpected, except the resizing.. when I resize the frames, all widgets start to flick, and I really don't like to see it.
To understand better the issue, I took a piece of code from my real program and I simplified it as much as possible:
from tkinter import *
from tkinter import ttk
class MainWindow:
def __init__(self):
# main window:
self.parent=Tk()
self.parent.geometry("760x620+370+100")
self.parent.title("Main Window")
self.parent.configure(background="#f0f0f0")
self.parent.minsize(760, 600)
self.Frame1=PanedWindow(self.parent, orient=HORIZONTAL)
self.Frame1.grid(row=0, column=0, padx=(5,4), pady=(6,0), sticky="nswe")
self.parent.grid_columnconfigure(0, weight=1)
self.parent.grid_rowconfigure(0, weight=1)
self.Frame1_1=Frame(self.Frame1)
self.Frame1_1.pack(side=LEFT)
self.Frame1_2=Frame(self.Frame1)
self.Frame1_2.pack(side=RIGHT)
self.Frame1_1.grid_columnconfigure(0, weight=1)
self.Frame1_1.grid_rowconfigure(0, weight=1)
# Frame1_1:
self.Frame1_1_1=PanedWindow(self.Frame1_1, orient=VERTICAL)
self.Frame1_1_1.grid(row=0, column=0, sticky="nswe")
self.MainNotebook=ttk.Notebook(self.Frame1_1_1)
self.MainNotebook.pack(fill=BOTH, expand=True)
self.MainNotebookFrame=Frame(self.MainNotebook, background="white")
self.MainNotebookFrame.pack()
self.MainNotebook.add(self.MainNotebookFrame, text="Tab1")
self.Search1SV=StringVar()
self.Search1Entry=ttk.Entry(self.MainNotebookFrame, textvariable=self.Search1SV)
self.Search1Entry.pack(fill=BOTH, padx=5, pady=5)
self.TVDFrame=Frame(self.MainNotebookFrame, background="white", highlightbackground="#7a7a7a", highlightthickness=1)
self.TVDFrame.pack(fill=BOTH, expand=True, padx=5, pady=(0,4))
self.TVDFrame.grid_columnconfigure(1, weight=1)
self.TVDFrame.grid_rowconfigure(1, weight=1)
self.TreeView1=ttk.Treeview(self.TVDFrame, height=10, selectmode="browse")
self.TreeView1.grid(row=0, column=0, columnspan=3, rowspan=3, sticky="nsew")
self.HeaderFrame=Frame(self.TVDFrame, height=25, background="#d9ebf9")
self.HeaderFrame.grid(row=0, column=0, columnspan=3, sticky="nsew")
ttk.Label(self.HeaderFrame, text="Languages:", background="#d9ebf9").grid(row=0, column=0, pady=3)
self.TreeView1SBY=ttk.Scrollbar(self.TVDFrame, orient="vertical", command=self.TreeView1.yview)
self.TreeView1SBY.grid(row=0, column=2, rowspan=2, sticky="nse")
self.TreeView1.configure(yscroll=self.TreeView1SBY.set)
self.TreeView1.insert("", "end", text="Ciao")
self.TreeView1.insert("", "end", text="Hola")
self.TreeView1.insert("", "end", text="привет")
Frame(self.TVDFrame, height=1, width=4, background="white", highlightthickness=0, highlightbackground="white").grid(row=0, column=0, columnspan=3, sticky="new")
Frame(self.TVDFrame, height=1, width=4, background="white", highlightthickness=0, highlightbackground="white").grid(row=2, column=0, columnspan=3, sticky="ew")
Frame(self.TVDFrame, width=1, height=4, background="white", highlightthickness=0, highlightbackground="white").grid(row=0, column=0, rowspan=3, sticky="ns")
self.SecondNotebookFrame=Frame(self.Frame1_1_1)
self.SecondNotebookFrame.pack(fill=BOTH)
self.SecondNotebook=ttk.Notebook(self.SecondNotebookFrame)
self.SecondNotebook.pack(fill=BOTH, expand=True, pady=(2,1))
self.OptionalFrame1=Frame(self.SecondNotebook, background="white")
self.OptionalFrame1.pack()
self.SecondNotebook.add(self.OptionalFrame1, text="Tab1")
self.OptionalFrame2=Frame(self.OptionalFrame1, background="white", highlightbackground="#7a7a7a", highlightthickness=1)
self.OptionalFrame2.pack(fill=BOTH, expand=True, padx=5, pady=(5,4))
self.PBFrame1=Frame(self.Frame1_1, background="white", highlightbackground="#d9d9d9", highlightthickness=1)
self.PBFrame1.grid(row=1, column=0, padx=(1,3), pady=(3,1), sticky="nswe")
self.PBFrame2=Frame(self.PBFrame1, background="white", highlightbackground="#7a7a7a", highlightthickness=1)
self.PBFrame2.pack(fill=BOTH, padx=5, pady=5)
self.Progressbar=ttk.Progressbar(self.PBFrame2, mode="determinate", maximum=100, value=0)
self.Progressbar.pack(fill=BOTH, padx=10, pady=10)
# frame Frame1_2:
self.WorkNotebook=ttk.Notebook(self.Frame1_2)
self.WorkNotebook.pack(fill=BOTH, expand=True, pady=(1,0))
self.WorkNotebookFrame=Frame(self.WorkNotebook, background="white")
self.WorkNotebookFrame.pack()
self.WorkNotebook.add(self.WorkNotebookFrame, text="Tab1")
self.WorkNotebookFrame=Frame(self.WorkNotebookFrame, background="white", highlightbackground="#7a7a7a", highlightthickness=1)

self.Progressbar.pack(fill=BOTH, padx=10, pady=10)
self.Frame1.add(self.Frame1_1, minsize=230)
self.Frame1.add(self.Frame1_2, minsize=250)
self.Frame1_1_1.add(self.MainNotebook, minsize=56)
self.Frame1_1_1.add(self.SecondNotebookFrame, minsize=104)
# end:
self.parent.mainloop()
if __name__=="__main__":
app=MainWindow()
in addition I attached also a GIF and this image shows exactly when the issue happen:
how can I solve the resizing issue?
