Remember to:

  • Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
  • Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
  • Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

@midnight flax as you can see the sub-races buttons pop up but they arent the same size as the other race buttons nor do they display text: they should say half wood elf, half dark elf, half high elf

#initialize progress bar
progress_bar = ttk.Progressbar(resultsframe, orient='horizontal', mode='indeterminate', length=280)
progress_bar.pack(side=tk.TOP, pady=10)
