       Database Class: BorderWidth

              The  desired  width  of  the widget border.  Defaults to 0.  May be ignored depending on the theme
              used.

       Command-Line Name:-relief
       Database Name:  relief
       Database Class: Relief

              One of the standard Tk border styles: flat, groove, raised, ridge, solid, or sunken.  Defaults  to

       Command-Line Name:-width
       Database Name:  width

       Command-Line Name:-height
       Database Name:  height
       Database Class: Height

              If specified, the widget's requested height in pixels.

WIDGET COMMAND

       Supports   the   standard   widget   commands   configure,   cget,  identify,  instate,  and  state;  see
       ttk::widget(3tk).

NOTES

       Note that if the pack, grid, or other geometry managers are used to manage the children of the frame,  by
       the GM's requested size will normally take precedence over the frame widget's -width and -height options.
       pack propagate and grid propagate can be used to change this.

STYLING OPTIONS

       The class name for a ttk::frame is TFrame.

       TFrame styling options configurable with ttk::style are:

       -background color
       -relief relief

       Some options are only available for specific themes.

       See the ttk::style manual page for information on how to configure ttk styles.

BINDINGS

       When a new ttk::frame is created, it has no default event bindings; ttk::frames are not  intended  to  be
       interactive.
