- Tkinter is capitalized in Python 2, but lower case tkinter in Python 3
- and in Python 2 ttk is a separate library, but I guess in Python 3 you import ttk from tkinter.
#! /usr/bin/env python from Tkinter import * from ttk import * root = Tk() # create a top-level window master = Frame(root, name='master') # create Frame in "root" master.pack(fill=BOTH) # fill both sides of the parent root.title('EZ') # title for top-level window # quit if the window is deleted root.protocol("WM_DELETE_WINDOW", master.quit) nb = Notebook(master, name='nb') # create Notebook in "master" nb.pack(fill=BOTH, padx=2, pady=3) # fill "master" but pad sides # create each Notebook tab in a Frame master_foo = Frame(nb, name='master-foo') Label(master_foo, text="this is foo").pack(side=LEFT) # Button to quit app on right btn = Button(master_foo, text="foo", command=master.quit) btn.pack(side=RIGHT) nb.add(master_foo, text="foo") # add tab to Notebook # repeat for each tab master_bar = Frame(master, name='master-bar') Label(master_bar, text="this is bar").pack(side=LEFT) btn = Button(master_bar, text="bar", command=master.quit) btn.pack(side=RIGHT) nb.add(master_bar, text="bar") # start the app if __name__ == "__main__": master.mainloop() # call master's Frame.mainloop() method. #root.destroy() # if mainloop quits, destroy windowSome notes:
- The original demo puts the notebook in a frame, in another frame inside the top-level window, but you can just go nb->frame->root, and skip the extra frame. Not sure what you gain or lose.
- If you want to see the demo decomposed, I converted the original demo as a script in the Gist.
- You don't have to call
Tk()
to create a top-level window, Frame will do it for you. Then you can access the window via the master attribute of Frame. - If you call the Frame's
quit()
method, it will destroy the window for you, so the last line,root.destroy()
, is not necessary. - If you don't bind the
"WM_DELETE_WINDOW"
protocol to Frame'squit()
method, you will get a traceback whenroot.destroy()
is called, saying that it can't destroy the window because it's already been deleted. - Use
fill=BOTH
if your labels and buttons are smaller than the parents they occupy if you want them to extend to both sides. - All of these demos are included in your Python distribution. On MS Windows it is here: C:\Python27\tcl\tk8.5\demos
Enjoy!!!
