CustomTkinter Widget Gap Fix

@diwakarrankawat

This is a classic customtkinter grid geometry issue. I have dealt with this exact problem before -- the default padding in CTk frames and widgets is more generous than standard tkinter, and grid/pack propagation makes it worse. Here is what is likely happening and what I will fix: 1. CTkFrame has internal padding that adds invisible space. Fix: set fg_color="transparent" on wrapper frames or use .grid_configure(padx=0, pady=0) explicitly 2. grid() row/column weights may be distributing extra space unevenly. Fix: configure grid_rowconfigure and grid_columnconfigure with weight=0 for tight rows 3. If pack() is mixing with grid() in nested frames, that causes unpredictable spacing. Fix: standardize to one manager per container 4. CTkEntry has default internal padding. Fix: adjust corner_radius and border_width to reduce visual gap I will look at your code + screenshot, make the precise adjustments, and test on Windows.

Hi, I can help you tighten up the layout in your customtkinter Windows app without disrupting your existing structure. Spacing issues like this usually stem from row/column weight configuration, implicit padding from parent frames, or how grid propagation and widget scaling are interacting. Instead of trial-and-error tweaks, I’ll precisely adjust grid row/column configs, internal padding, and geometry propagation to eliminate excess vertical and horizontal gaps while keeping your current layout logic intact. If needed, I can introduce a minimal refactor (such as consolidating layout control into a dedicated container frame) to ensure consistent spacing across the interface clean, compact, and predictable. A few quick questions: 1) Are the buttons and Entry inside the same parent frame? 2) Are you using grid_columnconfigure/rowconfigure with weights? 3) Is DPI scaling enabled in customtkinter?
