Tkinter Dialogs¶
tkinter.simpledialog — Standard Tkinter input dialogs¶
The tkinter.simpledialog module contains convenience classes and functions for creating simple modal dialogs to get a value from the user.
tkinter.simpledialog. askfloat ( title , prompt , ** kw ) ¶ tkinter.simpledialog. askinteger ( title , prompt , ** kw ) ¶ tkinter.simpledialog. askstring ( title , prompt , ** kw ) ¶
The above three functions provide dialogs that prompt the user to enter a value of the desired type.
class tkinter.simpledialog. Dialog ( parent , title = None ) ¶
The base class for custom dialogs.
body ( master ) ¶
Override to construct the dialog’s interface and return the widget that should have initial focus.
buttonbox ( ) ¶
Default behaviour adds OK and Cancel buttons. Override for custom button layouts.
tkinter.filedialog — File selection dialogs¶
The tkinter.filedialog module provides classes and factory functions for creating file/directory selection windows.
Native Load/Save Dialogs¶
The following classes and functions provide file dialog windows that combine a native look-and-feel with configuration options to customize behaviour. The following keyword arguments are applicable to the classes and functions listed below:
Static factory functions
The below functions when called create a modal, native look-and-feel dialog, wait for the user’s selection, then return the selected value(s) or None to the caller.
tkinter.filedialog. askopenfile ( mode = ‘r’ , ** options ) ¶ tkinter.filedialog. askopenfiles ( mode = ‘r’ , ** options ) ¶
The above two functions create an Open dialog and return the opened file object(s) in read-only mode.
tkinter.filedialog. asksaveasfile ( mode = ‘w’ , ** options ) ¶
Create a SaveAs dialog and return a file object opened in write-only mode.
tkinter.filedialog. askopenfilename ( ** options ) ¶ tkinter.filedialog. askopenfilenames ( ** options ) ¶
The above two functions create an Open dialog and return the selected filename(s) that correspond to existing file(s).
tkinter.filedialog. asksaveasfilename ( ** options ) ¶
Create a SaveAs dialog and return the selected filename.
tkinter.filedialog. askdirectory ( ** options ) ¶
class tkinter.filedialog. Open ( master = None , ** options ) ¶ class tkinter.filedialog. SaveAs ( master = None , ** options ) ¶
The above two classes provide native dialog windows for saving and loading files.
Convenience classes
The below classes are used for creating file/directory windows from scratch. These do not emulate the native look-and-feel of the platform.
class tkinter.filedialog. Directory ( master = None , ** options ) ¶
Create a dialog prompting the user to select a directory.
The FileDialog class should be subclassed for custom event handling and behaviour.
Create a basic file selection dialog.
cancel_command ( event = None ) ¶
Trigger the termination of the dialog window.
Event handler for double-click event on directory.
Event handler for click event on directory.
Event handler for double-click event on file.
Event handler for single-click event on file.
filter_command ( event = None ) ¶
Filter the files by directory.
Retrieve the file filter currently in use.
Retrieve the currently selected item.
go ( dir_or_file = os.curdir , pattern = ‘*’ , default = » , key = None ) ¶
Render dialog and start event loop.
Exit dialog returning current selection.
Exit dialog returning filename, if any.
Update the current file selection to file.
class tkinter.filedialog. LoadFileDialog ( master , title = None ) ¶
A subclass of FileDialog that creates a dialog window for selecting an existing file.
Test that a file is provided and that the selection indicates an already existing file.
class tkinter.filedialog. SaveFileDialog ( master , title = None ) ¶
A subclass of FileDialog that creates a dialog window for selecting a destination file.
Test whether or not the selection points to a valid file that is not a directory. Confirmation is required if an already existing file is selected.
tkinter.commondialog — Dialog window templates¶
The tkinter.commondialog module provides the Dialog class that is the base class for dialogs defined in other supporting modules.
class tkinter.commondialog. Dialog ( master = None , ** options ) ¶ show ( color = None , ** options ) ¶
