Tk/Tcl has long been an integral part of Python. It provides a robust andplatform independent windowing toolkit, that is available to Python programmersusing the
tkinter
package, and its extension, the tkinter.tix
andthe tkinter.ttk
modules.The
tkinter
package is a thin object-oriented layer on top of Tcl/Tk. Touse tkinter
, you don’t need to write Tcl code, but you will need toconsult the Tk documentation, and occasionally the Tcl documentation.tkinter
is a set of wrappers that implement the Tk widgets as Pythonclasses. In addition, the internal module _tkinter
provides a threadsafemechanism which allows Python and Tcl to interact.Python GUI To develop GUI application in Python, there are multiple options in terms of python packages. The most generally used package is tkinter. In this Python GUI Tutorial, we will use tkinter to learn how to develop GUI applications.
tkinter
’s chief virtues are that it is fast, and that it usually comesbundled with Python. Although its standard documentation is weak, goodmaterial is available, which includes: references, tutorials, a book andothers. tkinter
is also famous for having an outdated look and feel,which has been vastly improved in Tk 8.5. Nevertheless, there are many otherGUI libraries that you could be interested in. For more information aboutalternatives, see the Other Graphical User Interface Packages section.- Thanks for the advice terry but i do not want to parse them i would like to bring them into a tkinter gui similar to a document view including zoom. – R4PH43L Oct 30 '14 at 21:01. Something has to parse the bytes in a.pdf file and convert the parsed objects to a displayable bitmap image.

Where can I find the most modern tutorial that teaches
tkinter
together with ttk
?Tkinter
seems the only way to go in Python 3 (don't suggest Python 2), and ttk
gave me hope for good-looking GUI.6,2861010 gold badges5858 silver badges105105 bronze badges

I have found the TkDocs tutorial to be very useful. It describes building
Tk
interfaces using Python and Tkinter
and ttk
and makes notes about differences between Python 2 and 3. It also has examples in Perl, Ruby and Tcl, since the goal is to teach Tk itself, not the bindings for a particular language.Samsung NotesWith Samsung Notes you can create notes containing texts, images with footnotes, voice recordings, and music. Samsung s memo download. Moreover, you can share your notes easily to SNS.Previously made any memos from S Note and Memo also can be imported into Samsung Notes.Samsung Notes provides various brush types and color mixers, so that you can draw fabulous paintings like professional painters.You may also share your paintings at PEN.UP right away.Samsung Notes is a hub for all your hand-written notes, sketches, drawings.
I haven't gone through the whole thing from start to finish, rather have only used a number of topics as examples for things I was stuck on, but it is very instructional and comfortably written. Today reading the intro and first few sections makes me think I will start working through the rest of it.
Finally, it's current and the site has a very nice look. He also has a bunch of other pages which are worth checking out (Widgets, Resources, Blog). This guy's doing a lot to not only teach Tk, but also to improve people's understanding that it's not the ugly beast that it once was.

I recommend the NMT Tkinter 8.5 reference.
The module names used in some examples are those used in Python 2.7.
Here's a reference for the name changes in Python 3: link

One of the conveniences of ttk is that you can choose a preexistingtheme,
which is a full set of Styles applied to the ttk widgets.

Here's an example I wrote (for Python 3) that allows you to select any available theme from a Combobox:
Side note: I've noticed that there is a 'vista' theme available when using Python 3.3 (but not 2.7).

I recommend reading the documentation. It is simple and authoritative, and good for beginners.

It's not really fresh but this is concise, and from what I've seen valid either for Python 2 and 3.
