New to Tkinter: Is it possible to stack frames on top of one another and if so, can frames have transparency?
My goal is to create widgets with gradient backgrounds. I was hoping I could do this by placing an image in a frame and then placing an identical sized frame over this image frame. This on-top frame would contain all my child widgets. Details: Is it possible to place a frame on top of an image background? From my reading, the only way to do this appears to be to use a Canvas as my container (vs. a Frame). The downside to using a canvas appears to be that Labels do not have transparent backgrounds so any text I place in such a (canvas based) container must be placed with Canvas.create_text() vs. laid out via one of the pack/grid/place layout managers. Am I understanding this right? Thank you, Malcolm
