Python - geometry method in Tkinter
Python has capability to create GUI applications using the Tkinter library. The library provides many methods useful for GUI applications. The geometry method is a fundamental one which decides the size, position and some other attributes of the screen layout we are going to create.
Example - 1
In the below program we create a window of size 22x200 pixels using the geometry method. Then we add a button to it and decide button position in the window using the side and pady options.
Example
from tkinter import * base = Tk() base.geometry('200x200') stud = Button(base, text = 'Tutorialspoint', font =('Courier',14, 'bold')) stud.pack(side = TOP, pady = 6) mainloop()
Running the above code gives us the following result:
Example-2
In this example we create a canvas with a clickable link which will enable us to visit a URL. Again we use the geometry method to create the canvas of the required size.
Example
import webbrowser from tkinter import* def Uniform_Resource_Locator(): url=webbrowser.open_new("http://tutorialspoint.com") main=Tk() main.geometry("300x250") stud=Button(main, text="visit Tutorialspoint", font=('Courier',15,'bold'), command=Uniform_Resource_Locator)stud.pack(side = RIGHT, pady = 6) main.mainloop()
Running the above code gives us the following result
