R tcltk: change the icon of a tkmessage

Question

Does anyone know if there is a way to change the picture icon of a tkmessage? I know there is a way to change the icon of the overall panel using tcl, but what about the message box? For example, can I change the 'Tk' icon to something else?

Thanks! DD

Answer 1

I don't see any options for changing the icon within a message box. The message box function is a pretty simple, few option tool for a quick message. If you want more functionality than it provides (ie the option to change that icon) then you can create your own dialog box with a label and button to do the job and change the icon the way with a regular window.

Answer 2

kico = 'myicon.ico' # where we have an icon we prefer to use instead of tkinter icon which icon files

i downloaded bitmap icons (probably ibm)

...in the place where establishing a root window i might have this

from Tkinter import * root = Tk() root.wm_iconbitmap(kico) # this seems to overlay in the main application and all child window tkinter dialogs etc

... overlays the tkinter icon in for example tkMessageBox.askokcancel dialog
