忘记与grid_forget（Python）

Question

I'm using tkinter for GUI stuff. I noticed that I can use the 'grid' method to align widgets to the appropriate row and column, which references the grid_configure method. However, the forget method, which references grid_forget, does not work in the same way. For example, I think that I should be able to do the following

def updateEquationInput(self):     
        self.labelXEQUALS.forget

but my label called self.labelXEQUALS isn't removed unless I use grid_forget instead. Why is that?

Answer 1

The code is missing () .

self.labelXEQUALS.forget()
                        ^^

As you may know, without () , the function/method is not called.

BTW, forget is a shortcut for pack_forget , not grid_forget .
