@azure vault First you develop the kivy gui on your desktop like a classic gui. Next, you package the gui for android. You can have more informations about packaging in the kivy doc > https://kivy.org/doc/stable/guide/packaging.html
@silk basin TextBlob and PyEnchant seems to be good libraries. You can found examples online
vague gale
No, not really.
@past locust you can pass multiple arguments to lambda as well
rich wigeon
hey, anyone here familiar with the internal of click (the CLI library) ? I'm trying to call a command from already validated/converted Parameter but getting lost in the source ... (also lmk if this is the wrong chan, i'm new here)
vague gale
@rich wigeon it is not the wrong channel
can you explain what's the issue exactly? are you getting any error?
rich wigeon
nope, no error and my think works as is, but it's too hacky for my taste, let me explain
my goal is to generate web UIs (and later GUIs) from click command definitions
i use the Command / Argument definition to generate HTML forms qnd validating them, and end up with a bunch of already validated/coponverted values for the parameters
now i want to feed those values into the command callback
but the oonly method i found is to turn the options/values into an array of string and feeding that to the parser
vague gale
ok so you already made the command but need to add parameters to it?
rich wigeon
so the whole conversion part happens twice
vague gale
you could add flags to your command
rich wigeon
yeah, the command has all the options defined and works as intended on the command line
vague gale
you used click.option right?
rich wigeon
yep
option and argument
the core of the issue here is that instead of getting the options from the command line, I get them from a web form
vague gale
oh..
rich wigeon
for k, v in form.data.items():
par = parameters.get(k)
if isinstance(parameters.get(k), Option):
if par.is_flag and v:
raw_options.append(par.opts[0])
elif not par.is_flag:
raw_options.extend((parameters[k].opts[0], v))
elif isinstance(par, Argument):
if len(v):
raw_parameters.append(v)
args = raw_options + raw_parameters
debug += f"args={args}"
old_stdout = sys.stdout
old_stderr = sys.stderr
sys.stdout = output_buffer = StringIO()
sys.stderr = output_buffer
try:
output = command.main(args=args, standalone_mode=False)
except UsageError as e:
error = e.format_message()
sys.stdout = old_stdout
sys.stderr = old_stderr
output = output_buffer.getvalue()
the user has to input the command on the web page instead of the command line?
rich wigeon
yep
then the form validates and converts the values using the option types defined in click
so in this code example, form.data has those values, and they've already been through the validation/conversion grinder
vague gale
and is it working as expected?
rich wigeon
yeah
it's just inelegant
to have to convert the options back into their raw form and have them be parsed again
the relevant part of the code above is output = command.main(args=args, standalone_mode=False)
where args is a list of raw options/args
couldn't find any lower level of hooking into click

Hi
I'm not sure if is it the right place to post this problem
I'm developing a python launcher (for .py) just like the default one
but the thing is it runs the scripts with PyPy implementation instead of CPython.
I'm trying to add a shortcut of my program to windows context menu
and i did with windows registry
but i want to add it in Open with
here
as you can see in the main context menu
there is a shortcut to my program "Run with PyPy"
But i want to do sth that Windows recognize it as a .py file opener
Thanks in advance.
azure vault
Is PyPy flagged as capable of handling .py files? Idk the inner workings of windows but I believe it just looks for apps capable of handling the file type in question
Theres a window in the settings to set all the defaults for different file types
if this doesnt solve your problem, I assume it should at least set you on the right path

Hello, how/what module would i use to get python to insert a query into a search bar like this?

Hi I am having a weird problem and I am not really sure how to go about fixing it. I have two functions I have been trying to try and find a bottleneck my data collection and my live plotting of the data. data collection takes about 2 seconds per cycle and the plotting takes about 0.2 sec per cycle both of these speeds are acceptable. however the issue seems to be when a live plot is open the data collection slows down to between 4-14 seconds per cycle which is way two slow. Ideal time for data collection would be 1 second per cycle. i can post some relevant code but i cant figure out how to go about fixing this
the data collection is on its own thread btw
tawny edge
@limber crown Tkinter would be the best
lethal vapor
@limber crown Yes, if that's a website. You can use Selenium to automate that task.
@limber crown If it's a desktop app you can use PyAutoGUI. But from the looks of it looks like a website.

If they are in the same directory you can just use import
safe moon
It’s where it is saved on your computer
uncut pawn
K
it did not work
@safe moon
I try that 5 to 6 times
it did not work
put it in different folder
made a new file
nothing
worked
safe moon
So you have file1 and file2 in the same save folder on your computer
uncut pawn
yes
safe moon
Then inside of file1 you should be able to do “import file2”
uncut pawn
yes
safe moon
From there you should be able to use stuff from file2 inside of file one
safe moon
Is it giving an error when you try and use a method from the second file?
uncut pawn
will how
safe moon
Can you send a sample of the code where you are having the issue?
safe moon
I’m not to sure about tkinter since I mainly use pyqt5 but if I had to make a guess I would think it’s you need a different pass your window differently
uncut pawn
how do I do that
safe moon
With tk I’m not to sure
bronze basin
@uncut pawn your importing the same file in the same file?
thats most likely your error
i think what you want is, to write that line import mymodule2 as m2 in your mainmodule.py
and then it should work unless there is some other issue
bronze basin
you should always import the file you want to import in another file
not the same file itself

you can get the resolution directly by the os

So you're not storing anything, because you're saving the output of the .grid() function, which doesn't return a value
You want to split up the initialization of a widget and the placement of a widget
I'm not entirely certain what you mean by "copy of a task for the button" either.
You want to save the task in a button before the task is pressed?
So your buttons are created from a for loop and associated with some task function. The problem is that when you press the button it isn't starting the task function but is... printing the string?
If you overwrite the string on the button, unless you store the original string elsewhere, you can't get it back.
You don't overwrite the original string or you hold the original string in a temp value that you can reference when you want it back.
Well I'm not really understanding the use case where you'd have to overwrite the string the button is associated with
what exactly are you aiming to store in that odd globals()["task_state_" + str(task_count)] Because right now you're not storing anything.
but are you actually trying to store the button you create there? Are you planning on using it later?
There really isn't a solution with your current implementation. Once you overwrite the text associated with the button, unless you're storing the original text elsewhere that you can reference, there isn't a way to get it back
So, this is the part of your code that's actually creating and placing the button:
Button(text=task, command=lambda: press_button(task)).grid(row=task_count, column=3)
This part, is currently doing nothing but storing a NoneType value: globals()["task_button_" + str(task_count)]
So I'm not sure what you mean when you say "give it the same name". Multiple buttons can have the same label and still be distinct objects in memory.
What's wrong with this topical channel?
oh, you mean voice help. I'm currently watching a lecture, so I won't be able to chat right now
why can't the button have a label of "task" and not the name of the task itself?
the text on the button itself.
But you said you're having trouble with the text on the button changing/not changing
Oh, you're saying it's using the last task in the for loop, not the one assigned at creation
instead of comannd=lambda:dasdfasdf use command=partial(press_button, task)
lambdas only resolve references when they're started (i.e. when you press them). Partials will "freeze" the reference when you initialize them
at the top of your file from functools import partial
Sorry it took a bit for me realize what was happening
glad it works now

I want to make a gui like this
There should be an image on the left and a frame on the right
the frame should contain a few text labels
the whole window should also be resizable
how can I go about this? Please help me I use tkinter thanks

self.AccessFrame.grid(column=1, row=0)

this is what I have now
But it isnt scalable
I need the frame on the right also to be scalable
how to do this? Please help me
thanks!
inner nest
@fallen rain A solution might be to pack() two frames side by side. One with your image and a second with your entries in a grid. Because pack() method resize elements dynamically while grid is more tricky to configure.
fallen rain
Okay
this is the actual image
but in the gui its zoomed
I dont want that
it affects the clarity
How to fix that?
inner nest
What type of widget are you using ? @fallen rain
inner nest
did you try in a label or in a canvas ?
inner nest
you can resize your image with ImageTk object
@deep hornet you can start with smalls projects like print meteo for a city given by the user
amber roost
@digital rose grid_forget() all widgets that you know are in row 2; they may be retrievable by other means as well, hold on
amber roost
Alright, technically you could winfo_children() the parent and then call an empty grid_configure on each of the returned children to test whether they are in row 2, but instead of doing that I recommend keeping track of your widgets at python level
deep hornet
yes

But when I click that botón the entry and the text label just get wild and we can not see the text anymore. I have to resize the screen and it works

is there an official page for files on the docs?
in tkinter, is it possible to add a entry for photos?

@digital rose youve already opened the file. so only thing remaining is to write to it. maybe what you need is a list of filenames and then if file name is == what you want , open it and write to it

Someone knows how to use Pysimplegui... Cuz when I convert .py to exe and close the application it still running in background... I'm trying to put one break, but the break stop the hole code in the wrong moment?

I would like to have the pyautogui left click drag a V shape without it letting go of the "click" halfway through, is there anyway to do so?
import pyautogui
import time
time.sleep(2)
pyautogui.moveTo(905, 336)
pyautogui.dragTo(984, 306, duration=0.5, button='left')
pyautogui.dragTo(1046, 336, duration=0.5, button='left')
in tkinter, when i make a label, and then pack it, i can't select it with my mouse
i want to do that beacause i wan to ctrl c, ctrl v
how do i make the label "selectable"
?
storm jay
make a button because that is the only one that is selectable.........i think label's arent selectable.......thats what i think........
small ridge
@deep hornet get the width and height of the gui, and set the button width to half that minus a bit, etc
use .place()
small ridge
ok
get the width of the entire window
and set the buttons position to half that
same for height
because half of the width would be the middle
deep hornet
here is the code
deep hornet
ok
digital rose
@deep hornet what is your problem?
how to move this button to the middle
@deep hornet Easy
use the place system
example:
from tkinter import *
root = Tk()
my_Button = (root,text="Button Click Me")
my_Button.place(x = 10, #You're X-Axis Position
y = 20) #You're Y-Axis Position
root.mainloop()
you're welcome

In tkinter can we add an image in a background
@left lava yes
steady coyote
How i can use a fluent design in tkinter.
past locust
What do u mean a fluent design?? @steady coyote
pale sleet
thats an oxymoron i think
past locust
Its a custom ui. You won't have any default functions for making this kind of ui. You'll have to create different custom functions to be able to create this kind of ui. @steady coyote
left lava
@modern marsh can you share the code to do that?
steady coyote
@past locust thx
modern marsh
there maybe a better method
but the way i did it was
using pillow library create a variable like image that contains the image
then,
label.pack()
@left lava
maybe frames can do this too
left lava
@modern marsh cool I’ll try
past locust
Nvm i was tryna give an example to @steady coyote
modern marsh
ahh ok
past locust
The code is too long
modern marsh
how to create that sort of ui?
with the transparency etc
ig its very hard to do that in tkinter
modern marsh
ahh there is another method similar to that
make the relief flat, put a round image in, make the bg same as the bg of the window
easy round buttons
candid basalt
@steady coyote its like insanely hard to do in tkinter, Use Qt if you want some advanced effects
steady coyote
Ok. I see
past locust
And the most important of all, u shouldn't be doing UIs in python in the very first place. JavaScript has neater UI options, if u want to make a bigger project tbh. @steady coyote
pale sleet
if youre on a mac, you could manipulate the objc libs to write UIs
but that belongs in #esoteric-python lol
digital rose
how do i make the text in a label selectable?

u mean a flat button with no boundaries?

I've only really ever used GUIZero for making graphical interfaces in python and I've had a look around and like the look of PyQt/PySide2.
I've seen that there are licencing issues with them and was wondering which one is "safer" to use, I'm not bothered by the slight differences in their functionality.
bronze basin
Pyside 2 has more flexible licensing
fluid tinsel
would PyGObject, wxPython, or PySide2 (considering licenses and gui quality on all OSes) be better for an open-source, free to download BUT publicly available app?
ruby ember
if you compress your code into a .exe, no one will know you used guizero ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
bronze basin
@fluid tinsel considering quality Pyside2 easily outranks all the others
but it is more difficult to learn
and for licenses it would be better if you searched it up according to your specific project and situation
thot pyside2 should be fine for the usage you stated
fluid tinsel
it’s just an open-source public syntax highlighter for something
i used to use PyQt so I can remember some things.
fluid tinsel
oh I just saw the requirements are:
>=2.7, !=3.0.*, !=3.1.*, !=3.2.*, !=3.3.*, !=3.4.*, <3.10
which basically means it only runs on python 2.7 to python 3.0. i’m using python 3.8 rn
so due to that, remove it from the options, PyGObject or wxPython?
tribal path
3.5 to 3.9 would be fine there
fluid tinsel
installation fails.
bronze basin
it shouldn't?
something is wrong at your end then
cause i am using python 3.8.3 and its working just fine

How can I handle user interaction that triggers long-running requests without causing the UI to freeze up?
static cove
By using threads
obsidian grotto
Know any good code examples for that in a UI framework context like TKinter or pyQT? Or would that be a better question for #async-and-concurrency ?
static cove
@obsidian grotto i have examples of it in both tkinter and pyqt. I need to pull the code from a laptop though. Give me ~20 minutes?
obsidian grotto
@static cove yes, thank you! 🙂 🙂
static cove
@maiden mauve are you getting a specific error?
obsidian grotto
@maiden mauve What's the error when you hover over that red-underlined curses?
maiden mauve
I ask you and repeat a question @obsidian grotto @static cove
static cove
It's unclear what error you're getting from your code, so we're asking for more information
maiden mauve
The error is that there is no error without any reason showing this defect to me@static cove
static cove
Does something appear when you hover over it?
static cove
At the top bar, can you click "View" and then "Output"
A bottom panel should appear. I then want you to navigate over to "Problems" in that bottom panel
obsidian grotto
@maiden mauve what python version are you on?
maiden mauve
3.8.6
static cove
So that's a pylint warning. In my experience pylint doesn't do a great job with dealing with library import errors. I would recommend switching the linter to flake8
obsidian grotto
Weird that pylint gives it red squiggly instead of yellow though on VSCode.
static cove
This is an issue specifically with pylint not being able to analyze C source doe by default and curses is a C extension technically
obsidian grotto
@maiden mauve just try running it, does it run?
maiden mauve
what should I do now? No, keep learning Python or what?
@static cove
static cove
Well, it's not a true error, so just keep on trucking. If it's bothering you, you can add --extension-pkg-whitelist=curses to your pylint config file
maiden mauve
I do not understand you, I am new to Python@static cove
obsidian grotto
@maiden mauve use Python to run the file from the command line! Keep going!
@maiden mauve is this your first python program?
@maiden mauve That red squiggly is a lie, a fake error, ignore it. Keep writing the program the way the tutorial shows you.
safe void
im using tkinter and i want to know how big (width and height) should my window icon be?
obsidian grotto
@safe void According to this thing I just googled, tkinter's iconbitmap method supports .ico files: https://subscription.packtpub.com/book/web_development/9781788622301/1/ch01lvl1sec21/setting-the-main-window-s-icon-title-and-size
But there's also an iconphoto method? https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/iconphoto-method-in-tkinter-python/
If you want to go the iconbitmap route with an .ico file, those are 16x16 or 32x32.
I'd use Imagemagick to convert to that from your source image:
$ tldr magick
Local data is older than two weeks, use --update to update it.
magick
Create, edit, compose, or convert bitmap images.
ImageMagick version 7+. See `convert` for versions 6 and below.
More information: <https://imagemagick.org/>.
- Convert file type:
magick image.png image.jpg
- Resize an image, making a new copy:
magick convert -resize 100x100 image.jpg image.jpg
- Create a GIF using images:
magick *.jpg images.gif
- Create checkerboard pattern:
magick -size 640x480 pattern:checkerboard checkerboard.png
- Convert images to individual PDF pages:
magick *.jpg +adjoin page-%d.pdf
But I'm sure @static cove has a more well-informed opinion than I do :3
static cove
Alright, sorry for the large code block incoming. Spinkyt, this is a rough overview of how I structure my pyqt threaded code (I highly recommend pyqt, it's implementation includes thread safe classes)
class WorkerSignals(QObject):
new_data = pyqtSignal()
class Worker(QRunnable):
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super(Worker, self).__init__()
self.args = args
self.kwargs = kwargs
self.signals = WorkerSignals()
@pyqtSlot()
def monitorDataThread(self, *args, **kwargs):
print("Do the thing you want to do in a thread")
print("I found data")
self.signals.new_data.emit()
class myMainWindow(QMainWindow):
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super(myMainWindow, self).__init__(parent, *args, **kwargs)
self.threadpool = QThreadPool()
def monitor_data():
self.monitor_data_worker = Worker()
self.monitor_data_worker.new_data.connect(self.other_function)
self.threadpool.start(self.monitor_data_worker.monitorDataThread)
static cove
So, in my use case, I use global variables to help lock/unlock long running threads. I don't care about having to stop threads early, so I use QRunnables. If you want to use QThreads, I have examples somewhere in this channel for how to implement that instead. (I'll go find it and link it).
obsidian grotto
This should be plenty to get me going, many thanks! @static cove 😁 🍻
static cove
Overall, you have a class that's usually called "Worker". This is where the threaded functions actually occur. You can transmit data and progress back via signals. If you need an example of how to transmit data back through a signal let me know.
obsidian grotto
I read a tutorial on signals and slots a couple weeks ago, but I think I should go give myself a refresher.
static cove
There are some other considerations with QRunnables. For instance, if you don't start a QRunnable within a certain time frame it gets deleted. I spawn and start mine back-to-back so that's not an issue for me.
obsidian grotto
static cove
Signals and slots are great! My favorite feature of pyqt
safe void
If you want to go the iconbitmap route with an .ico file, those are 16x16 or 32x32.
@obsidian grotto ty!
obsidian grotto
@safe void yw
static cove
@safe void definitely recommend the .ico route! It makes it easy to use
safe void
yup im doing that
static cove
You can also go the threaded route with tkinter but it's such a headache if you don't get it right
It's also much more annoying to share data between threads
obsidian grotto
@static cove Yeah, that was my initial impression of tkinter. It's just something Python threw in because they like having a fat standard library, but I couldn't find any decently complex apps made with it. QT definitely seems to be the talk of the town in the Python community for cross-platform GUI dev.
And good to know about PyQT vs. PySide, that there's actually a technical advantage putting aside the philosophical debate.
static cove
I think they're equivalent right now (I think there are a handful of small difference technically). I use pyqt5 out of sheer laziness.
deep hornet
yes
rocky dragon
I had a couple less problems with pyqt5 but beyond some differences like signals it's mostly the same. Neither seem to be in active development except for Qt version updates
bronze basin
Pretty sure Pyside 2 has been adopted officially for python Qt under the Qt company so it should be more actively developed
static cove
There is no "main.jpg" file inside that folder, so it can't find the file

ok so i want to make a calculator with tkinter. so what im thinking is that the user presses a button that adds a string with the digit/operation to the end of a list, and then i use "".join(list) and then it will be like "1+1" and then i use eval() on that string, and then i use the set() method on the StringVar i created earlier. Is there an easier way to do this?
Hi
hi
you mean make calculator with tkinter
then
yes
yeah and you want easier method
hmmm
if it is posible
are you made entry
no
with buttons
ah
make a func
cuz like then the user has to know python syntax and knows that to use "to the power of" u have to type **
and i want to add factorial and i dont want the user to type math.factorial()
from tkinter import *
def plus(numbers):
bla bla ....
Button(text="1",command = lambda: plus(1)).pack()
wut is lambda
lambda is make you can access to the var in functions
ohhhhhhh
and i wondered how do i use the function in the command parameter with parathases cuz i need to enter parameter without activating it
yeah
the lambda is cool
and i want to add factorial and i dont want the user to type math.factorial()
@digital rose so I'm really bad inmathmodule
factorial is like:
5 factorial is: 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1
which is 120
ah
also
how can i stop tkinter from using that "e" that google uses when the number is too large
i want to display whole number
no "e"'s allowed
ah you mean
the intreger num?
what is intreger
integer?
yes
ah
it's easy
the round
will be cool
ok
num_1 = 444
num_2 = 33
print(round(num_1 + num_2))
output:
477
how can i tell tkinter to go on the next line if the label is too large to fit on the same line
hmmm
easy the if stament
look
from tkinter import *
test = Label(text="large text ............................").pack()
if test.width > 200:
print("the Label is bigger than the sreen")
else:
print("The label is cool")
why 200?
any number
but this is for example
the number is the width of your screen
What does the Message widget do?
?
jesus christ
ohhhhh
what 😂
its like a multi-line label
that automaticly goes on the next line
yeah
exactly what i've been looking for
cool
any chance you know how to scroll trought one?
if its THAT big
I was tkinking you mean check if the label is bigger than the screen
any chance you know how to scroll trought one?
@digital rose ? scroll the text
yes
im looking at stackoverflow rn
ah
sec
hmmm
I don't sure

so I'm not good in QT5 Designer
i'm really sorry

root = Tk()
Button(root,text="Click Me").place(x=10,y=20,width=10,height=40)
root.mainloop()
ah
unique forge
and after creating the UI with drag and drop you program all the widgets
digital rose
yeah
unique forge
with Tkinter you program everything
digital rose
but I prefer the tkinter system
unique forge
which I find a bit tedious
digital rose
yeah
unique forge
what are layouts
bronze basin
@unique forge it basically is a predefined way of how your widgets are arranged dynamically
bronze basin
it should work for the situation your in if i understand correctly
unique forge
because when I press a button it prints text in a QLineEdit
bronze basin
in QT designer you right click on your frames and widgets and click layout vertically
unique forge
but sometimes the number is really long
bronze basin
or any of the options
wait you want to expand the size of the Qlineedit?>
only
?
then I am not sure whether this will be as helpful what you need to do this check if the lineedit's value is greater than a certain value and then if it is increase the widget of the lineedit
this should work for what your trying to do ^
unique forge
yes
hollow needle
if i wanted to make a simple UI for a program im writing (just needs buttons, tables, and ability to show image) what would be the best way?
unique forge
hi
@hollow needle
you can use Tkinter, or PyQT5, which has a software called QT Designer, which is a drag and drop interface, \but you still have to program the buttons later.
hollow needle
thanks!

im trying to figure out something though if you have a minute... cant get a style to work, it just makes the border disappear

'borderwidth': '4',
'bordorcolor': '#1DA498',
'relief': 'flat'

``` neither works and all of those are styles in the ttk.Style() classits all good, maybe someone else will step in and answer. even without the border options, the border disapears and i dont understand why
tkinter isnt a built in in skinny versions of python, maybe thats the issue?
idk...
@digital rose idk either, but chances are that its missing from the python libraries. i dont have a clue about Linux though. its been ages since ive done anything on unix/linux

Time.sleep() is stopping the entire gui, including the event loop that shows the label. Then after 3 seconds it quits. You want to have something shown for x period of time and then close it?
fluid tinsel
does it matter if I use PyQt5 or PySide2 for an open-source app?
lunar kelp
kinda disappointed, but thanks! You’ve always been helpful.
@digital rose tkinkter has an .after() timer. itll be better then time.sleep
fluid tinsel
if you need a time sleep you could thread it.
though tkinter as far as i know isn’t thread safe.
lunar kelp
dont need it. root.after("time in ms", function) will wait x ms and then call the function

the frame is

And I'm placinf the button inside the frame
The frame is inside the window

@sinful wharf you dont have a side=Right that i see

oh your packing right... it still has to be in a master element... either in the frame or in window
lunar kelp
what are you using for the parent?
lunar kelp
its not in the code you gave earlier. its missing the parent... on top of that, give your button a height and a width... probably just filling the box. since you have an image, i cant actually run the code to fix it. but ive seen crazier things in tkinter

you also need a parent for the listbox. and you height and width is greater then that of top_bar so it will cover the frame anyways. or not be fully displayed
sinful wharf
just download this image and put it in the same directory if you really want to help me out thanks
btw rename this to whatever ive written in the code/edit the code or something

@lunar kelp oh shitttt almost forgot
what if my button is larger than the frame...
also why is hiehgt=47 not working on the button
height**
lunar kelp
probably has to do with pack... i place everything, but you should really use grid over the other 2. i just havent used it yet. how my stuff is setup, i pack the parent element, and place everything else inside of it is how i think of it

``` is that what you wanted? i changed the background of the listbox to see where it was@lunar kelp but the frames background color (#fafafa) isn't showing... That's what I wanted
lunar kelp
its not going to if you have an element that fills it.
lunar kelp
why do you want the frames bg to show? just change the Listboxs bg to #fafafa
sinful wharf
I don't want the entire window to be that
lunar kelp
I don't want the entire window to be that
@sinful wharf what exactly are you looking for? thats what im asking. you want the button in the frame, and the listbox being outside the frame?
sinful wharf
Yesss
lunar kelp
okay... so move the y on the code i gave you down 50 and itll show the frame color
sinful wharf
- Button
- Frame for the button (top bar)
- Listbox
Button being inside the frame for the button, and the listbox being outside of the frame for the button, inside the window

Kk
btw im going for something like this
Can I somehow make the image button 2 pixels smaller
lunar kelp
ya, thats what mine looks like, just change or remove background for the Listbox. set the other button image to x=10, y=0 or something similar will place the other button in that corner as well... adjust the x/y values accordingly
ya adjust the height/width variables

Is it like a lighter version of electron for python?

(I'm using tkinter with multiple files)
File welcomeScreen.py:
import tkinter as tk
import main
def WS():
window = tk.Frame(master=main.mainWindow, height=500, bg="#00ffa2")
welcomeText = tk.Label(master=window, text="Welcome!")
window.pack(fill=tk.BOTH)
File main.py:
#startup
import tkinter as tk
import welcomeScreen
mainWindow = tk.Tk()
mainWindow.title("DeHabit")
mainWindow.iconbitmap(r'media\pixil-frame-0 (3).ico')
#main
welcomeScreen.WS()
#runner
mainWindow.mainloop()
When i try to run the main file, it throws exception
Exception has occurred: AttributeError
partially initialized module 'welcomeScreen' has no attribute 'WS' (most likely due to a circular import)
static cove
you're importing welcomeScreen.py into main.py and then also importing main.py into welcomeScreen. That's definitely a circular import.
safe void
it has been fixed, ty!
