this is my first time programming a GUI. I'm looking to have the label to the left of the entry textbox and both aligned in the center of the GUI, but I don't know to do it can anyone help that would be much appreciated
(NOTE: This a no functional GUI example. I have not added any code for how the textboxes or buttons work. They will be added later)
import tkinter as tk
root = tk.Tk()
root.geometry("400x400")
root.configure(bg='White')
root.title("Search your class information")
# Create a label with background and foreground colors
label = tk.Label(root, text="Search your for your class using one or more of the search criteria", bg="white", fg="black")
label.pack()
label = tk.Label(root, text="Enter Text:")
label.pack()
entry = tk.Entry(root, selectbackground="lightblue", selectforeground="black")
entry.pack()
# Create a button with active background and foreground colors
button = tk.Button(root, text="Search", activebackground="blue", activeforeground="white")
button.pack()
root.mainloop()
Simply put the label and entry in a frame:
import tkinter as tk
root = tk.Tk()
root.geometry("400x400")
root.configure(bg='White')
root.title("Search your class information")
# Create a label with background and foreground colors
label = tk.Label(root, text="Search your for your class using one or more of the search criteria", bg="white", fg="black")
label.pack()
# frame for the label and entry box
frame = tk.Frame(root)
frame.pack()
# created as child of the above frame
label = tk.Label(frame, text="Enter Text:")
label.pack(side='left')
# created as child of above frame
entry = tk.Entry(frame, selectbackground="lightblue", selectforeground="black")
entry.pack(side='left')
# Create a button with active background and foreground colors
button = tk.Button(root, text="Search", activebackground="blue", activeforeground="white")
button.pack()
root.mainloop()
Output
