For new people, PIL is in all caps. Also, you add Pillow from the command line with pip install Pillow. (Stack overflow apparently says its deprecated) Also, ImageTk, the "k" is not capitalized. It drove me nuts for about an hour before figuring it out. Also thank you for this video. Awesome content.

@@Codemycom I think my main mistakes with it was not hearing the part about the command line. I ended up going to try to install it within the python program at first, and went down a rabbit hole.

The iconbitmap() method seems to be a Windows only thing. For those using Linux (and possible MacOS - I don't have access to a Mac to verify this), another way of setting the icon must be taken. It took some effort to figure this out, so I'll share it here. This is the simplest way of doing it, there are more complex ways for multiple-size icons, etc. First, the .ico file format can't be used, so the image should be a PNG file. Then, the following code must be used, assuming that (as we do here), the root window is in a variable called root. root.iconphoto(False, tk.PhotoImage(file='') The file name can be just the image file name if it is in the current working directory during script execution or any absolute or relative path. Not all GUI environments in Linux have the window icon in the top left corner, but this also sets the icon used in the task bar.

[@infinitespace1982]

@@Codemycom Then what do you suggest?

What you're probably doing wrong is that you are not specifying the NAME of the ico file after the directory, e.g. 'c:/gui' is the directory and 'codemy.ico' is the name of the ICO file, thus you must typer the following: (r'c:/gui/codemy.ico') in full (DON'T FORGET THAT 'r')

In Linux, one has to do this to put an icon in the title bar: import tkinter as tk root = tk.Tk() root.title('CharDB: PC Record Database App') root.tk.call('wm', 'iconphoto', root._w, tk.PhotoImage(file='chardb-gui.png')) root.geometry("1152x648") In Linux the iconbitmap() call can only use the XBM image format due to limitations of X-Windows system. XBM is a binary color format -- on or off, so images must be in B&W; no grey-scale or colors. Thus one needs to use a PhotoImage() call to put a custom icon in the title bar.

Good tip!

is there any way to make the picture\photo to be in circle\oval .. or how can i make the corners transparent of the image.. i can use any image just i want the picture to seen in circular format..

[@oneilmw]

Image formats generally have four channels: a red channel, a green channel, a blue channel, and an alpha channel. The alpha channel is the "transparency" layer, and works just like the other three: each pixel has its own red, green, blue, and alpha value. If you turn the alpha value of the corner pixels to 0, you can get rounded corners. If you're looking for a way to automate this vignette within tkinter, good luck to you; it's probably a lot of work. Alternatively, you could (theoretically) make a corner image in your background color, anchor it to it's corresponding corner, then draw that on top of your image to trick the user into thinking that the image has rounded corners. I haven't tested it, but it is something to try.

Has nothing to do with the grid system. You likely have a typo or did something different from the video. Try root.quit()

You can't use icons on linux, those are windows things

Sir I use python idle for my tkinter projects. I used the same as you to add exit button to the tkinter window, but the code didn't work . It just brought up a button with the text and no function at all. I was sure I provided the quit function to it with the exact code as you. Can I get a help from you?

Don't use idle

For the icon root.iconbitmap(r'c:\_Python\Icons\icon.ico') I successfully remove the default feather icon, but it is replaced with a blank page icon. I've tried .ico images 512x512 and 256x256- what am I doing wrong?

[@Codemycom]

I have videos on the playlist that talk about images on other windows, you need to make them global to avoid tkinter garbage handlers.

[@notanamehere8355]

@@Codemycom oh thanks for replying. I found what the problem was, I needed to make the image's master the second window. I really like your tutorials, great way to start python again after 1 year

[@anabelsa]

Please, notice that the PIL import statements must go after the tkinter import. Otherwise, you will get some errors.

[@Codemycom]

I’m not sure that’s the case.

[@anabelsa]

@@Codemycom Well, I am, because I placed the PIL import before and got an error. I found the reason somewhere, only now I cannot find it back.

[@ShaiS0]

First of all, just want to say I'm so happy I found your channel! informative clear and fun! So thank you for that. Now for my question - I've successfully added the ico and png files as demonstrated. But they only seem to work when I put the full path to them. If I try just the file name I get a "TclError bitmap "coffee.ico" not defined. same thing for the png. The files are in the same folder as the py file. using VS Code as my IDE if that matters

[@ShaiS0]

I've now tried running the same py file straight from the command line and it seems to be running fine. So I guess it's related to environment or path when running from VS Code. no clue as why though...

[@Codemycom]

@@ShaiS0 Yeah that's why I don't use complicated editors like VS Code or Pycharm...there's always weirdness like that.

[@ShaiS0]

@@Codemycom Thanks for your reply. Well, that's a bummer. Though I guess I could still use it as an editor (quite like it) and just execute the old fashioned way from the CMD. Thanks!

[@ShaiS0]

Just an update - for those who end up in the same situation. It should be possible to change the settings so that relative path is resolved from the script file location and not from somewhere else - I couldn't make it work for me. What I did is I installed an extension to CODE called "Code Runner". It adds a right click context menu "run" action and a "run" icon at the top right side. This works similar to running the code manually from the terminal window. Unfortunately it doesn't work together with the debugger built in CODE but it's better than nothing.

[@TakeMorePics]

Im following the instructions perfectly, but cant seem to get the icon part to work. I am on Ubuntu 18. The icon I have is called Chrome.ico and is in the same directory as the program that is calling it. I even tried the entire path to the .ico file, and that doesnt work either. from tkinter import * root = Tk() root.title('Learn To Code at Codemy.com') root.iconbitmap('Chrome.ico') root.mainloop() and I get the error: tkinter.TclError: bitmap "Chrome.ico" not defined

[@Codemycom]

Icon files don't work on ubuntu.. you need an xbm file and must append it with a @ sign (I think) root.iconbitmap('@/home/whatever/Chrome.xbm') or something like that...
