So I'm writing a program for my final year project, and this thing in particular has just been bugging the hell out of me. I've been at it so long and I can't figure it out, so I'm hoping somebody fresh will be able to shed some light on it!
Basically, my program is for recording and storing results for my school's sports day. The idea is that it will actually be used in the future by the school, so I want it to be aesthetic as well as functional. Of course, this means integrating a UI of some kind, and since I've used Tkinter before it seemed like the obvious approach.
So far I've just got the basic windows coded. I have two windows: a main window and an "edit" window for changing participant names. I've written the code for these two windows in separate .py files and imported the "edit" window file into the main file, so that I can call for it to run when an "EDIT" button is clicked in the main window. For whatever reason, however, the "edit" window simply runs itself when I run the main program, even though the only reference to it is import editWindow.
This is the code for the main window:

I'm at the point now where I'm wondering if it would actually just be better to write the whole program in a single .py file, though I thought that doing it this way would be more elegant.
If somebody could suggest a nice, streamlined solution for this that would keep the code for the two windows separate, I would be very grateful. I'm using Python 3.4, FYI.
Thanks.
When you import a module, you are executing its code. That how importing modules actually works in python. To stop it, put code in the imported module in a function or a class. To be fair, its still being run to make the functions or classes, but they wont be called automatically. They will be just defined. In the main file, you just call the functions/class from the imported module.
All top-level statements in a python module are run when the file is imported. In your case, because the entirety of your edit file is at the module-level, every statement gets run upon import. I'd suggest taking your 'edit' commands and putting then inside a function:
def run_edit_window():
... put your code here
Then in your main file, you will import the edit file first:
import edit # Assuming file is named 'edit.py'
Then, when your edit button is pressed, call:
edit.run_edit_window()

I'm creating a GUI desktop program with Python using Tkinter on Treeview that interacts with a Postgresql database. The GUI displays all the contents in Treeview of a certain table when the program launches.
I have 2 tables when I have just added new data to table no.1 with column Id and Article.
Next, I will create new data in table no.2 by using data from table no.1. In this case, I would like to get the latest data but it is not shown in Combobox.
So my problem is why the latest data is not shown how can I fix it.
Here is the code that I need to get the latest data from the first table :
article_combobox = ttk.Combobox(wrapperArtForm, font=('Arial', 13), width=36)
article_combobox.grid(row=1, column=2, sticky="w")
article_combobox['values'] = dbArticle.view_ArticleCol()
Also can see more detail in the image attachment.
enter image description here
Next the second form to input data to the database in the different above table :
class ArticleConditionCreateWindow(Frame):
def __init__(self, parent, controller):
Frame.__init__(self, parent)
self.controller = controller
label = Label(self, text="Article Condition - Create", font=controller.title_font, bg='#99ccff')
label.pack(side="top", fill="x", pady=(5,5))
# Article Condition Create Data
#def article_create():
wrapperArticleCreate = LabelFrame(self, text="Article Condition - Create Data", font=('arial',10,))
wrapperArticleCreate.place(x=130, y=34, width=1040, height=678)
article_create_window = Frame(wrapperArticleCreate, bg="#e6ffe6")#, width=800, height=600)
article_create_window.pack(fill="both", expand="yes", padx=10, pady=10)
# Create Article Condition Form to Enter Article Data
wrapperArtForm = Frame(article_create_window, bg="#e6ffe6", width=1040, height=570)
wrapperArtForm.place(x=0, y=0, width=1040)
def insert_db():
# Check Entry Form must be not Empty
dataEntry = article_combobox.get() and supplier_combobox.get() and article_condition_combobox.get()
if dataEntry !="":
dbArticleCondition.insert(article_combobox.get(), customer_number_entry.get(), description_combobox.get(), supplier_combobox.get(), article_condition_combobox.get(), price_combobox.get(), batch_combobox.get())
def view_da(dbArticleCondition):
trvArtCondition.insert('', 'end', values=dbArticleCondition.view_LastRow())
view_da(dbArticleCondition)
controller.show_frame("ArticleConditionMainWindow")

Two images need to be shown on the tkinter. The one defined earlier in wrapper2, shows empty frame while the one that has to appear in wrapper3 after getting 4 as sum, does not appear at all. Moreover, the output printed is "Try again". Why it is so? When sum is 4 it has to show "Move ahead".
First of all, terrible names.
Both your function and your PhotoImage are named img. Rename the function to def add_img().
Second, looking at your code I have no idea what all the wrapper frames are for, why not name them according to what they are planned to hold? Same applies to all the widgets. Wouldn't calc_btn be a better name than btn? img_btn instead of btn2? Why do you need to read more than the name to know what something is?
Third, you have ent8 twice in your code. Once as Label and again as a StringVar.
Tkinter constantly refreshes your window so you need to save the image you are using.
Personally I would have done all of this in a class.
For right now, with your current code, just add
loaded_img = ImageTk.PhotoImage(Image.open("Amritsar.jpg")) before your functions and instead of using the variables you are using to open the image, just use Label(wrapper3, image=loaded_img)
As in:
win = Toplevel()
wrapper=Frame(win, bd=4, relief=RIDGE, bg="crimson")
wrapper.place(x=0, y=80, width=465, height=625)
wrapper3=Frame(win, bd=4, relief=RIDGE, bg="crimson")
wrapper3.place(x=950, y=80, width=465, height=625)
wrapper3_title=Label(wrapper3, text="Selected Data", bg="crimson", fg="white", font=("times new roman",30,"bold"))
wrapper3_title.grid(row=0,column=0,padx=20, pady=10)
wrapper2=Frame(win, bd=4, relief=RIDGE, bg="crimson")
wrapper2.place(x=465, y=80, width=485, height=625)
ent8=StringVar()
loaded_img = ImageTk.PhotoImage(Image.open("Amritsar.jpg"))

After setting an image for a Label, you need to keep a reference to this image. Otherwise, it's removed at the end of the function and you lose the image (it's garbage collected).
So, when you define your label, just add a line that stores the image as an attribute of the label:
img=ImageTk.PhotoImage(Image.open("Amritsar.jpg"))
Label2= Label(wrapper2, image=img)
Label2.grid(row=0, column=0, padx=10, pady=5, sticky='w')
Label2.dontloseit = img
The Label2 widget now has a nonsensical attribute called .dontloseit which holds the image. Now, it won't get collected and it will show in your tkinter widget.
It's one of the peculiarities of tkinter.

mycanvas = Canvas(self.search_result_frame)

mycanvas.bind('<Configure>', lambda e: mycanvas.configure(scrollregion = mycanvas.bbox('all')))

When I run it, it shows me the bad window path name ".!labelframe.!canvas.!frame error and when I try to do the same thing without object-oriented in tkinter then it works well !

i'm working on my first ever project, and i'm using python/tkinter. i've come up with this design(above) but i can't make it responsive.
i want the bottom section to stay the same but i want to extend the top part through the bottom.
from tkinter import *
root = Tk()
topFrame = Frame(root)
topFrame.pack(side=TOP, fill=BOTH)
scrollbar = Scrollbar(topFrame)
scrollbar.pack(side=RIGHT, fill=Y)
listbox = Listbox(topFrame)
listbox.pack(fill=BOTH)
for i in range(100):
listbox.insert(END, i)
#attaching list and scroll
listbox.config(yscrollcommand=scrollbar.set)
scrollbar.config(command=listbox.yview)
#bottom frame
bottomFrame = Frame(root)
bottomFrame.pack(side=BOTTOM, fill=X)
#bottom laft frame
b_leftFrame = Frame(bottomFrame)
b_leftFrame.pack(side=LEFT, fill=X)
#defining label
label1 = Label(b_leftFrame, text="Title")
label1.grid(row=0, column=0, sticky=E)
label2 = Label(b_leftFrame, text="Author")
label2.grid(row=0, column=2, sticky=E)
label3 = Label(b_leftFrame, text="Publisher")
label3.grid(row=0, column=4, sticky=E)
label4 = Label(b_leftFrame, text="Year")
label4.grid(row=0, column=6, sticky=E)
label5 = Label(b_leftFrame, text="Translator")
label5.grid(row=0, column=8, sticky=E)
#defining labels
title_text =StringVar()
entry1 = Entry(b_leftFrame, textvariable=title_text)
entry1.grid(row=0, column=1)
author_text =StringVar()
entry2 = Entry(b_leftFrame, textvariable=author_text)
entry2.grid(row=0, column=3)
publisher_text =StringVar()
entry3 = Entry(b_leftFrame, textvariable=publisher_text)
entry3.grid(row=0, column=5)
year_text =StringVar()
entry4 = Entry(b_leftFrame, textvariable=year_text)
entry4.grid(row=0, column=7)
translator_text =StringVar()
entry4 = Entry(b_leftFrame, textvariable=translator_text)
entry4.grid(row=0, column=9)
#bottom right
b_rightFrame = Frame(bottomFrame)
b_rightFrame.pack(side=RIGHT)
#buttons
b1=Button(b_rightFrame, text="View All", width=12)
b1.grid(row=2, column=3)
b1=Button(b_rightFrame, text="Search Entry", width=12)
b1.grid(row=3, column=3)
b1=Button(b_rightFrame, text="Add Entry", width=12)
b1.grid(row=4, column=3)
b1=Button(b_rightFrame, text="Update selected", width=12)
b1.grid(row=5, column=3)
b1=Button(b_rightFrame, text="Delete selected", width=12)
b1.grid(row=6, column=3)
b1=Button(b_rightFrame, text="Close", width=12)
b1.grid(row=7, column=3)
root.mainloop()
The problem here is that the topFrame widget, which contains the Listbox, is not taking all the available space.
Try replacing your:
topFrame.pack(fill=BOTH)
with:
topFrame.pack(fill=BOTH, expand=YES)
This will make the topFrame expand once you maximize the window.
Also, in order to make the listbox expand as well, replace your
listbox.pack(fill=BOTH)
with:
listbox.pack(fill=BOTH, expand=YES)
