How to get the status of button in tkinter?

from tkinter import *
import time
def checkTime():
if len(hourInput.get()) != 0 and len(minuteInput.get()) != 0 and len(secondInput.get()) != 0:
if hourInput.get() == time.strftime("%H"):
print("good")
window.after(500, checkTime)
def pressButton(button):
button.config(relief=SUNKEN)
if __name__=='__main__':
window = Tk()
window.geometry("1920x1080")
canvas = Canvas(window, width = 1980, height = 1020)
canvas.pack()
hourInput = StringVar()
minuteInput = StringVar()
secondInput = StringVar()
setHour = Entry(window, text = hourInput, font = (20))
setHour.place(x = 100, y = 20, width = 100, height = 40)
setMinute = Entry(window, text = minuteInput, font = (20))
setMinute.place(x = 300, y = 20, width = 100, height = 40)
setSecond = Entry(window, text = secondInput, font = (20))
setSecond.place(x = 500, y = 20, width = 100, height = 40)
canvas.create_text(60, 40, text = "Hour: ", font = (20))
canvas.create_text(260, 40, text = "Minute: ", font = (20))
canvas.create_text(460, 40, text = "Second: ", font = (20))
submit = Button(text = "Submit", height = 2, width = 10, font = (10))
submit.config(command = lambda submit=submit:pressButton(submit))
submit.place(x = 100, y = 100)
checkTime()
window.mainloop()
I want the function checkTime() to be called when my button is pressed. But how to get the status of my button and compare it ? I want to use the function only if the button is pressed as a test that the user agree with his inputs

You can modify the button declaration as follows so that the checkTime() will trigger when the button is pressed.
submit = Button(text = "Submit", height = 2, width = 10, font = (10), relief=SUNKEN)
submit['command'] = checkTime # no parentheses here
Also make sure that the checkTime() method call in the bottom is removed

I put the function checkTime() inside the pressButton() function, and now the program works fine.
from tkinter import *
import time
def checkTime():
if len(hourInput.get()) != 0 and len(minuteInput.get()) != 0 and len(secondInput.get()) != 0:
if hourInput.get() == time.strftime("%H"):
print("good")
window.after(500, checkTime)
def pressButton(button):
button.config(relief = SUNKEN)
checkTime()
if __name__== '__main__':
window = Tk()
window.geometry("1920x1080")
canvas = Canvas(window, width = 1980, height = 1020)
canvas.pack()
hourInput = StringVar()
minuteInput = StringVar()
secondInput = StringVar()
setHour = Entry(window, text = hourInput, font = (20))
setHour.place(x = 100, y = 20, width = 100, height = 40)
setMinute = Entry(window, text = minuteInput, font = (20))
setMinute.place(x = 300, y = 20, width = 100, height = 40)
setSecond = Entry(window, text = secondInput, font = (20))
setSecond.place(x = 500, y = 20, width = 100, height = 40)
canvas.create_text(60, 40, text = "Hour: ", font = (20))
canvas.create_text(260, 40, text = "Minute: ", font = (20))
canvas.create_text(460, 40, text = "Second: ", font = (20))
submit = Button(text = "Submit", height = 2, width = 10, font = (10))
submit.config(command = lambda submit=submit:pressButton(submit))
submit.place(x = 100, y = 100)
window.mainloop()

Can't modify global variable in python

from tkinter import *
import time
check = False
window = Tk()
window.geometry("1920x1080")
def typeTime():
hour = int(time.strftime("%H"))
minute = int(time.strftime("%M"))
second = int(time.strftime("%S"))
hourInput2 = int(hourInput.get())
minuteInput2 = int(minuteInput.get())
secondInput2 = int(secondInput.get())
if(hour == hourInput2 and minute == minuteInput2 and second == secondInput2):
print("now")
global check
check = True
canvas = Canvas(window, width = 1980, height = 1020)
canvas.pack()
hourInput = StringVar()
minuteInput = StringVar()
secondInput = StringVar()
setHour = Entry(window, text = hourInput, font = (20)).place(x = 100, y = 20, width = 100, height = 40)
setMinute = Entry(window, text = minuteInput, font = (20)).place(x = 300, y = 20, width = 100, height = 40)
setSecond = Entry(window, text = secondInput, font = (20)).place(x = 500, y = 20, width = 100, height = 40)
canvas.create_text(60, 40, text = "Hour: ", font = (20))
canvas.create_text(260, 40, text = "Minute: ", font = (20))
canvas.create_text(460, 40, text = "Second: ", font = (20))
submit = Button(text = "Submit", height = 2, width = 10, font = (10), command = typeTime)
submit.place(x = 100, y = 100)
if check == True:
print("Pressed")
submit.config(relief = SUNKEN)
window.mainloop()
I'm trying to make a button to stay pressed, so I tried to make this happens with a global variable. The variable check is initially False, but when typeTime() is called via the submit object it should change its value in True and when check will be tested later to keep my button pressed using config method.
What am I doing wrong, as neither the button is still pressed nor the message "Pressed" is displayed in the console ?

The window.mainloop() is the internal loop inside object window, not in your script so that is why it didn't work. You need to add the action inside the function typeTime:
from tkinter import *
import time
if __name__=='__main__':
check = False
window = Tk()
window.geometry("1920x1080")
def typeTime(button):
hour = int(time.strftime("%H"))
minute = int(time.strftime("%M"))
second = int(time.strftime("%S"))
hourInput2 = int(hourInput.get())
minuteInput2 = int(minuteInput.get())
secondInput2 = int(secondInput.get())
if(hour == hourInput2 and minute == minuteInput2 and second == secondInput2):
print("now")
# global check
# check = True
print('Pressed')
button.config(relief=SUNKEN)
canvas = Canvas(window, width = 1980, height = 1020)
canvas.pack()
hourInput = StringVar()
minuteInput = StringVar()
secondInput = StringVar()
setHour = Entry(window, text = hourInput, font = (20)).place(x = 100, y = 20, width = 100, height = 40)
setMinute = Entry(window, text = minuteInput, font = (20)).place(x = 300, y = 20, width = 100, height = 40)
setSecond = Entry(window, text = secondInput, font = (20)).place(x = 500, y = 20, width = 100, height = 40)
canvas.create_text(60, 40, text = "Hour: ", font = (20))
canvas.create_text(260, 40, text = "Minute: ", font = (20))
canvas.create_text(460, 40, text = "Second: ", font = (20))
submit = Button(text = "Submit", height = 2, width = 10, font = (10))
submit.config(command = lambda submit=submit:typeTime(submit))
submit.place(x = 100, y = 100)
# if check == True:
# print("Pressed")
# submit.config(relief = SUNKEN)
window.mainloop()

That is the full code for that GUI widget. I would like to get the value of the combo box once it is changed then I need to use it in another variable.

when opened a new frame and then going back to the home page, the home page messes up

when I sign in everything is fine and it takes me to the home page, when I click on view menu and then click the back button it takes me back to the home page, everything is still fine and the way I want however when I click on order menu and then press the back button to go back to the home page, my home page messes up and I see parts of "function:" function, how can i fix this?
I'm sorry if the code is a bit long I already cut out most of the unnecessary code (or tried to). Thank you for your help
