You might want the Frame widget to wrap the ListBox instead of the Pile. 
  Frame widgets can contain one box widget.

The Pile widget will eventually be general enough to use instead of the 
Frame (with any number of box or flow widgets) but I believe that it 
doesn't work yet.

Send some code if this doesn't answer your question.
