Python recipe 580707 by Miguel Martínez López (reload, reloading, tkinter). Revision 6.

run_with_reloader: Binding some hotkeys, for example control-r and control-R, the application is reloaded. It's the same behaviour than a browser. This code is useful for debugging.

Animated raster graphics demo in Tkinter (Python)

2015-05-05T20:26:41-07:00

Python recipe 579052 by Antoni Gual (animation, graphics, python, tkinter). Revision 4.

EDITED: A small animated graphics demo in Tkinter, displaying a 1990's style Rotozoom, more interesting than the TV snow I posted previously. The Tkinter management part is just the same. The code is a little longer as some trig tables must be precalculated for speed. The window size corresponds to the resolution of the old DOS screen 13, as I originally coded the demo for Qbasic.

Robust Testing of Tkinter Menu Items with Mocking. (Python)

2017-06-13T18:44:58-07:00

Python recipe 578964 by Stephen Rigden (invoke, mainloop, mock, mocking, tk, tkinter, unittest, unittesting, unittests). Revision 7.

This recipe addresses the problems encountered when building robust tests for Tk menus. The software under test is a simple window with two menu items that each invoke a one button dialog box. All user visible text is imported from an external config.ini file. This scenario can lead to fragile test code because of the way TK's invoke(index) command has been implemented. (Tcl8.6.3/Tk8.6.3.)

Game of Life - Python 3.4 & tkinter (Python)

2014-09-05T15:02:11-07:00

Python recipe 578928 by Peter M (python3, tkinter).

I took this well-know game to design my own solution, and make a GUI for it.

To run the program, you will need to create a txt file with rows of dots, so like this:

...... ...... ...... ......

and name it empty_board.gol (I have tested this program withwith 55x55)

It is functional and not object oriented.

My game of life algorithm is probably not the best one around (suggestions welcome), but I think this program is a nice demo of with tkinter can do and how easy it is to program GUI's with tkinter.

It has been written and tested in python 3.4 but I guess any version 3 should work, and probably only minor changes are needed to make it work in 2.6 or 2.7 (e.g. change tkinter to Tkinter).
