为什么 python tkinter 模块即使有文件也找不到文件？

Question

so I know you might have read similar questions but my question is just a bit different, I use python 3.8.3 and I know python basics so I wanted to start using GUI, I started off with Tkinter. I had written a small program which does nothing I was just trying but it doesn't work I don't know why. It gives error that unable to find file, I tried doing the code people told in other questions but it doesn't work, probably due to python versions, here is my code:

from tkinter import  *

window= Tk()
window.title("first GUI program of mine")
window.configure(background="black")

photo1 = PhotoImage(file="images.jpg")
Label (window, text="1 or 2 ? :", bg="black", fg="white", font="calibri 12 bold") .grid(row=1, column=0, sticky=W)


windows.mainloop()

so when I run this I get error like this:

tkinter.TclError: couldn't open "images.jpg": no such file or directory

the file is in the same folder in which the python program is saved.

any ideas?

Answer 1

Can you show your working directory? I think it's the problem of directory. If it's under the same level of directory, maybe you could try this: '/images.jpg'

Answer 2

PhotoImage class only supports GIF, PGM, PPM formats. So try to convert it.

Answer 3

That worked for me

from tkinter import  *
from PIL import Image, ImageTk

window= Tk()
window.title("first GUI program of mine")
window.configure()

photo1 = Image.open('images.jpeg')
photo1.show()

Label(window, text="1 or 2 ? :", bg="black", fg="white", font="calibri 12 bold").grid(row=1, column=0, sticky=W)

window.mainloop()

And where do you want the image to be shown? To show the image use show() function.
