I am developing a GUI on Python and I have the following problem: I want to have the picture at the top of the window and buttons right underneath it. I am using the Tkinter module and whatever geometry I use (place, pack or grid) the buttons don't move. The are only displayed if I move the image using grid to row 1 (which is the second row), otherwise they don't appear at all. Here is the code I am using for now. For reference the picture has dimensions of 291x87 pixels.
import Tkinter
from Tkinter import *
def main():
window =Tk()
window.geometry("300x300")
window.title("Dienes Blocks Application")
window.iconbitmap(default='favicon.ico')
app = HomeScreen(window)
window.mainloop()
class HomeScreen(Frame):
def __init__(self, master):
Frame.__init__(self,master)
self.create_buttons()
self.sparx_head()
def sparx_head(self):
self.grid()
photo = Tkinter.PhotoImage(file="logosmall.gif")
sparx_header = Label(image=photo)
sparx_header.image = photo # keep a reference!
sparx_header.grid(column=0, row=0, columnspan=2, rowspan=2, sticky='NSEW')
def create_buttons(self):
self.grid()
#teacher button
teacher_button = Tkinter.Button(self, text="Teacher")
teacher_button.grid(column=0, row=10)
# student button
student_button = Tkinter.Button(self, text="Student")
student_button.grid(column=2, row=10)
# prototype button
prototype_button = Tkinter.Button(self, text="Prototype")
prototype_button.grid(column=1, row=10)
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
