How to create a Splash Screen using Tkinter?

Let us suppose that we want to create a splash screen using tkinter. To create a splash screen, we will follow the steps given below −

• Create a splash screen with some labels in it.

• Make the splash screen borderless using the overrideredirect method.

• Create a function for the main window which will appear for a time just after the splash screen.

• Now using the after method, we can define the time for which the main window will appear.

Example

#Importing the tkinter library
from tkinter import *

#Create an instance of tkinter frame
splash_win= Tk()

#Set the title of the window
splash_win.title("Splash Screen Example")

#Define the size of the window or frame
splash_win.geometry("700x200")

#Remove border of the splash Window

splash_win.overrideredirect(True)

#Define the label of the window
splash_label= Label(splash_win, text= "Hello World!", fg= "green",
font= ('Times New Roman', 40)).pack(pady=20)
def mainWin():
   splash_win.destroy()
   win= Tk()
   win.title("Main Window")
   win.geometry("700x200")
   win_label= Label(win, text= "Main Window", font= ('Helvetica', 25), fg= "red").pack(pady=20)

#Splash Window Timer

splash_win.after(5000, mainWin)

mainloop()

Running the above code will generate the output and will show the splash screen and after some time, the main window.
