I found ways to hide something after pressing a button, but what I would like to do is having an invisible button that can still be pushed. A secret button of some sort, using Tkinter. It doesn't need to do anything yet
You don't need an invisible button to register a secret click Simply bind <1> to the root window and it will register whenever you click on anything (unless you click on some other widget that is listening for that event). You can then check the coordinates of the click to see where the use clicked.

I need my dialog box to close when the ok button is clicked. How do I do that ?
Assuming you created the button you should be able to just set the button click event as follows:
button.clicked.connect(self.close) where button is the button name.
Although since you did not provide any code with your question it's hard to know if this is what you're asking for...
I want to know, if there is a way to add label(or anything else like checkbox, button etc.) by pressing button.
I have a wx.toolbar with some buttons. One of the buttons makes pan left!
I want to click on the button and while I keep it pressed, the pan left is made.
For now I only saw that the wx.EVT_TOOL only works when mouse left is up.
Is there a way to do what I intend ?
In the toolbar button's event, you should be able to get the state of the mouse via wx.GetMouseState.
Alternatively, you can make your own toolbar with a panel and some wx.Buttons (or other button widgets).
There are two buttons in my little program, start and stop. And what I want is to disable the start button after I click it, and when I hit the stop button it should return to normal. How can I do this? I googled for a while and couldn't find the answer, hope you guys can help me out.
Thanks!
Use the button's Enable and Disable methods in the appropriate event handlers. There's a sample available at the link below:
wxPython Button Demo
In this snippet we are playing around with wxPython's buttons, showing you how to bind the mouse click event, enable and disable, show and hide the buttons. Each button also has a tool-tip (hint) associated with itself.
In Tkinter I'm trying to make it so when a command is run a widget is automatically selected, so that a one may bind events to the newly selected widget.
Basically I want it so when I press a button a text widget appears. When it appears normally one would have to click the text widget to facilitate the running of events bound to the text widget. I want that behavior to automatically happen when the user clicks the button. So that one does not have to click the button and then the text widget, but simply the button.
I'd also like it so if one started typing after the button was pressed it would automatically start filling the text widget. Again to cut out having to click on the text widget.
What bit of code does the above?
The terminology which describes what you want is "focus" -- you want to set the keyboard focus to your text widget. To do that you need to use the focus_set() and/or focus_force() methods on the text widget.
