turtle.ontimer() equivalent for tkinter

Question

I am writing a program that requires the tkinter canvas to update graphics. In its previous form it was written in turtle. The turtle function to update the canvas is turtle.ontimer() Is there a tkinter equivalent?

Answer 1

You can use after method:

For example:

root = Tk()

...

root.after(2000, callback) # call `callback` function in 2000 ms.
