Hi Alan and Zackary, Thank you so much for your inputs. I really appreciate any help on these things.
Alan, you mentioned that there are multiple toolkits which can be used instead of tkinter. I was also looking into wxpython for building a explorer bar. Mainly, I have to build a software entirely using python and thus, needed all these things put in place. I have been exploring things on how to do small bits of these using Tkinter. Would you suggest me to use some other toolkit instead of tkinter or maybe combine and use whichever whenever needed? I was just going through your website and looking at the tutorials, wanted to thank you. I think those would be really really helpful. Zackary, I tried using ttk for the multiple tabs feature and that worked out really nicely. Thank you once again. I would also look into the ttk.Combobox package. Thank you Yours truly, Pooja On Mon, Feb 6, 2017 at 10:31 PM, Zachary Ware <zachary.ware+py...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Mon, Feb 6, 2017 at 7:31 PM, Alan Gauld via Tutor <tutor@python.org> > wrote: > > On 06/02/17 16:40, Pooja Bhalode wrote: > > > >> I was wondering if someone could help me regarding multiple tabs in > >> tkinter. > > > > Look at the tabbed notebook in the Tix module. > > It should do what you want. > > ttk rather than Tix; Tix is unmaintained and soft-deprecated in 3.6+. > ttk provides most of the useful parts of Tix, is maintained as part of > Tk, and also looks significantly more native than classic Tk or Tix. > Tix is also less available on platforms other than Windows, whereas > ttk is present in any Tk 8.5 or greater. > > > I give a tutorial on its use in my recent book but you can > > also find online tutorials, especially in Tcl (Python ones > > are much harder to find) > > > >> Also, I was wondering if there is a way in tkinter to create an explorer > >> bar that we see in finder in OS Mac or windows.
