This repository contains solutions to simple "how to" problems in tkinter
,
that is problems you would ask help about by asking questions that start with
"how to". An example of a question is how to remove a row from a Treeview
?.
The aim of this project is to decrease the time looking up in the documentation
and/or in websites like Stack Overflow for solutions to recurrent simple
"how to" problems (while developing a tkinter
GUI). It does that by providing
concrete implementations of solutions (which you can simply copy and paste or,
in general, easily adjust to your needs) and a logically structured repository.
The folder widgets
contains examples of solutions to "how to" problems related
only to specific widgets. For example, in widgets/Text
we can find the file
style_parts_of_text.py
, which basically
contains an example of a solution on how to style certain parts of text (or
simple words) in a Text
widget.
Every file is intended to contain solutions to one single problem. Examples are concise. Each module's doc-strings contains a list of the references used while implementing the example.
Many solutions to "how to" problems in this repository have been based on solutions I found on websites such as Stack Overflow. So, even if I'm the author of the concrete implementations in this repository, in many (or most) cases I'm not the originator of the ideas used to implement the solutions.
