简单的 tkinter 问题 - 按钮命令（单击时显示其他文本）

Question

i've just started learning tkinter for python, and i'm trying to get the button to change its text when it's clicked on.

this seems like a very simple question, but i can't find any answers. the code i'm using at the moment doesn't work - when the window opens, it displays 'clicked,' as a label above the button immediately. before i've clicked on the button.

from tkinter import *

root = Tk()

def click():
    label = Label(root, text = 'clicked!')
    label.pack()

button = Button(root, text='click me', command = click())

button.pack()

root.mainloop()

Answer 1

You're passing command = click() to the Button constructor. This way, Python executes click , then passes its return value to Button . To pass the function itself, remove the parentheses - command = click .

Answer 2

To change an existing button's text (or some other option), you can call its config() method and pass it keyword arguments with new values in them. Note that when constructing the Button only pass it the name of the callback function — ie don't call it).

from tkinter import *

root = Tk()

def click():
    button.config(text='clicked!')

button = Button(root, text='click me', command=click)
button.pack()

root.mainloop()
