Python help channel opened

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.

obtuse hamlet Jul 17, 2024, 3:17 AM

#

i can make it bigger im using pycharm

spice kelp Jul 17, 2024, 3:17 AM

#

oh its np, i just dont have bandwidth right now to play video.. if you needed a help with tkinter could help you but idk which module u using

#

i just see "User Interfaces" on your ticket

#

that error means you're using 2 different layout managers (pack, place, or grid) within the same parent container

obtuse hamlet Jul 17, 2024, 3:19 AM

#

omg i see it...

spice kelp Jul 17, 2024, 3:19 AM

#

you use more than one layout manager in the same project but not within the same container

obtuse hamlet Jul 17, 2024, 3:20 AM

#

okay hold on

spice kelp Jul 17, 2024, 3:21 AM

#

looks like the only odd widget that isn't in the same layout manager is that label1

obtuse hamlet Jul 17, 2024, 3:21 AM

#

okay so that kinda worked but i got a new error

obtuse hamlet Jul 17, 2024, 3:21 AM

#

spice kelp looks like the only odd widget that isn't in the same layout manager is that lab...

label one was mainly for the main text

spice kelp Jul 17, 2024, 3:21 AM

#

okay that's because you didn't create login_button

spice kelp Jul 17, 2024, 3:22 AM

#

obtuse hamlet label one was mainly for the main text

yeah but it's using the .pack() layout manager.. switch it over to grid() like the others

#

because they're all within the window widget.. same container.. cant mix layout managers in same container

#

you just need to create your login_button

obtuse hamlet Jul 17, 2024, 3:24 AM

#

i switched that one to grid and made what i THINK is a proper button

#

spice kelp Jul 17, 2024, 3:24 AM

#

yeah there u go

obtuse hamlet Jul 17, 2024, 3:25 AM

#

okay so now this

spice kelp Jul 17, 2024, 3:25 AM

#

mis-spelled columnspan

obtuse hamlet Jul 17, 2024, 3:25 AM

#

and idk if this is common sense stuff or not but like i said im VERY new to python profla3Kekslide

spice kelp Jul 17, 2024, 3:25 AM

on line 32

#

its all good.. i been using tkinter long time now

#

tkinter is a good place to start learning GUIs

#

its lightweight and easy

obtuse hamlet Jul 17, 2024, 3:27 AM

#

#

...

#

i need to type slower

spice kelp Jul 17, 2024, 3:28 AM

#

there you go.. just remember to put things in frames if you want more control over positioning widgets

#

i mean you dont have to.. but like if you wanted to make it look even better, frames are best way to go

obtuse hamlet Jul 17, 2024, 3:30 AM

#

okay yeah im still learning and im sure you can see im using customtkinter as well but i couldint figure out how to make multiple windows with it so i just added tkinter

spice kelp Jul 17, 2024, 3:31 AM

#

like in your situation, i would probably have 4 frames there..
1 for the title label
1 to put the username label and it's entry widget both in together
1 to put the password label and its entry widget both in together
1 to put the login button in (you might later want a reset button or something else who knows)

#

ah i never did use custom tkinter myself

obtuse hamlet Jul 17, 2024, 3:31 AM

#

okay yeah this is just a little solo project im doing to strain my skills

#

spice kelp Jul 17, 2024, 3:31 AM

#

its good if you know it though.. i just personally didn't.. now I left Tkinter for GTK4

obtuse hamlet Jul 17, 2024, 3:31 AM

#

this is what i have with ctk

spice kelp Jul 17, 2024, 3:32 AM

#

nice looks good =]

obtuse hamlet Jul 17, 2024, 3:32 AM

#

def a lot better than the 2nd one

spice kelp Jul 17, 2024, 3:32 AM

#

#

tkinter known for its outdated looks.. but.. its kind of like other GUIs without all the additions.. you can make your own additions

obtuse hamlet Jul 17, 2024, 3:33 AM

#

obtuse hamlet Jul 17, 2024, 3:33 AM

#

spice kelp tkinter known for its outdated looks.. but.. its kind of like other GUIs without...
