Tkinter Label 'justify' Problem

[Dude]

Hi All,
I am fairly new to Python programming. I am working on a small
Tkinter project and I think I am missing something, maybe you can
help. The two lines below is all I have related to the Label widget:

lblServer = Tkinter.Label(serverFrame, text='Server:', fg='black',
justify='left', relief='groove')

lblServer.place_configure(width=200, bordermode='inside')


No matter what I change the 'justify' to whether it's 'lef', 'right',
or 'center', it always seems to be in the center.

I am also writing the keys from the Label widget to a file because
this has me so baffled. That is below.

Thank in advance for any help or direction you can give me.

The "justify" option comes into play only when you have a multi-line
label, which is not the case. If you want it left/right aligned then
use pack (instead of place, not really recommended but I don't know
what you are doing) and specify the anchor option with an appropriate
value ('e' or 'w') for what you want.
