Hello, great video, and thanks for your content as always. I had issues opening the top level window at the right time, I created a new window to show a progress bar for scanning the files within the function that was scanning the files, but it opens after the files have been scanned. Is there a way to open them right when I call the function and shows itself ontop and also updates the progress bar as the files are being scanned simultaneously

Sorry, I alrdy create a window for X function but instead to add all widgets in my window Y I just want create the new window X, but I have the code in another file, exist a form to I can create the new window X?

When I create a new window, It always focus the main window instead of the one I just created. Why is this happening? Im running the version 'customtkinter 5.2.2'. Thanks, great videos !

Me too! trying to figure it out. in regular tkinter that doesnt happen.Even if you have a customtkinter in main window and use just a reguler tkinter in new window it hides like it should. tell me if you figure it out!

@@larslover6559 u can use grab_set() function to fix it

[@larslover6559]

There must be a mistake in the customtkinter code itself as LordMegabite also pointed out.. The new window is hidden behind the root window in this code which obviously is a flaw.I'm making a simple app for my friend's school and I'm just forced to use regular tkinter as topwindow. Very annoying! hope somebody figure this out!!

How do i get data from an entry widget on the top level window back to the main window? Say i enter a name in the second/child window and i want to "get" that entry box variable and use it on the main window?

[@TkinterPython]

Turn it into a global variable

[@TaylorJenkins]

I noticed that you always drag new windows from off screen. Is it possible to have the new window open up in a specified location relative to the original window?

[@TkinterPython]

Yes, just modify the geometry tag (I have videos on that on the Codemy.com KZbin Channel).

[@user-it6ev2gw4d]

hi, I've looked everywhere and i cant seem to find the answer, is there a way to open a new window inside the main window? i don't want a new window to pop up , just want to open a new window in the same window that already open???

[@TkinterPython]

No, use a frame to open new things inside windows, not a new window.
