how to make python3.3 gui window fixed sizes?

as for the question mentioned, i cant find any code which can fixed the gui window and positions of all the labels, buttons etc.. 

import tkinter
import tkinter.messagebox

class Menu:
    def __init__(self):

        self.main = tkinter.Tk(height = 200, width = 400)

        self.position = tkinter.Label(self.main, text = '123',\
                                      bg = 'Purple',\
                                      height = 2, width = 8)
        self.position.place(height=50, width= 100)

        self.position.pack()

        tkinter.mainloop()

gui = Menu()

for this, i can only do the sizing of the label, not the position and the size of the main window. it gives this error

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Python33\Saves\Label position.py", line 18, in <module>
    gui = Menu()
  File "C:\Python33\Saves\Label position.py", line 7, in __init__
    self.main = tkinter.Tk(height = 200, width = 400)
TypeError: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'height'

You can use the resizable function.

root = Tk()
root.title('TITLE')
root.resizable(0, 0)

The right method to do this is to write this line after your window declaration :

{yourwindow}.resizable(width = False, height = False)

Use the minsize and maxsize methods to set the size of the window. The following code will make a fixed size window. Of course, you can skip one of them to give your user the option to resize the window in any one direction.

top = tkinter.Tk()
top.minsize(width=300, height=300)
top.maxsize(width=300, height=300)

It looks like you cannot set the width and height of the Tk element in the constructor. However, you can use the geometry method:

self.main = tkinter.Tk()
self.main.geometry("400x200")
