How to set border color of certain Tkinter widgets?

Question

I\'m trying to change the background color of my Tkinter app, but for certain widgets it leaves a white border around the edges.

For example, this:

f         


        

Answer 1

Just use

widget.config(highlightbackground=COLOR)

Furthermore, if you don't want that border at all, set the highlightthickness attribute to 0 (zero).
