listbox ipadx, ipady not working

[maxtimbo]

The padding is what you declare it as (run code below). You are possibly overlaying it with something else. You will have to comment lines in your complete program, and then run it, to see which line is the offender.

So when I run that I get:

Error:
{'in': <tkinter.ttk.Frame object .!frame>, 'column': 0, 'row': 1, 'columnspan': 1, 'rowspan': 20, 'ipadx': 5, 'ipady': 5, 'padx': 20, 'pady': (0, 20), 'sticky': ''}

Does that mean the parent frame is the culprit?
