ttk::sizegrip - Bottom-right corner resize widget
Contents
Bugs
If the containing toplevel's position was specified relative to the right or bottom of the screen (e.g.,
“wmgeometry...wxh-x-y” instead of “wmgeometry...wxh+x+y”), the sizegrip widget will not resize the
window.
ttk::sizegrip widgets only support “southeast” resizing.
Description
A ttk::sizegrip widget (also known as a growbox) allows the user to resize the containing toplevel
window by pressing and dragging the grip.

Platform-Specific Notes
On macOS, toplevel windows automatically include a built-in size grip by default. Adding a ttk::sizegrip
there is harmless, since the built-in grip will just mask the widget.
