Hi again, let me start off by saying that my code does what I want it to, it's just done in a terribly hackish way, and I'm wondering if there's a better way to do it.
I've got a Tkinter window, and when you click a button (the 'run' button), it opens a new window. When the new window opens, it starts running events in a while loop, and there's a 'stop' button on the window. The stop button just turns the 'while' condition variable to 0, so the loop ends. Here's a quick sketch of how I got it to work: ... loop = 1 ... (create a button that sets loop to 0) ... top.update() ... while loop: top.update() ...do stuff... top.update() This works, but I feel like there's got to be a better way to be doing this. I can get rid of the first top.update(), and one of the updates in the loop, but this configuration seems to be the most responsive. And using update_idletasks() doesn't seem to work, at all. Anyone have an idea? -Adam
