[Tkinter-discuss] writing a function to create button

[Ilknur Ozturk]

Hi Michael,

Actually my aim is a little bit different. I put one of the buttons in
my code;

        button_name = "menu"
        self.menu = Button(self.mycontainer,
                             command=lambda
                             arg1=button_name:
                              self.writecommand(arg1) 
                             ) 
        self.menu.configure(text="menu")
        self.menu.grid(row=2, column=0)
        ch = "<m>"
        self.menu.bind(ch,
                       lambda
                       event, arg1=button_name:
                       self.writecommand(arg1)
                       )

This part repeatedly occurs in my code for different buttons, but those
buttons placed in a different frames (not each in one, group by group)

For each button, button_name, configuration and geometry are changing.
It can be divided 2 or more functions if it can be achieved in any way. 

Thanks,

ilknur

Hi Ilknur,

maybe you mean something like

    buttons = []
    r = 0
    c = 0
    for i in range(100):
        b = Button(master, text=i, **kw)
        b.grid(row=r, column=c)
        buttons.append(b)
        c += 1
        if c > 10:
            c = 0
            r += 1

I hope this helps

Michael
