Calendar not aligned in tkinter

Question

I'm trying to print out a calendar in tkinter but it doesn't print aligned. If I print it in the python console it prints fine. I read on stack overflow to use justify = Left but that still hasn't fixed it.

from tkinter import *
import calendar

tk = Tk()

calendar_ = calendar.TextCalendar(calendar.MONDAY).formatyear(2017)
calendar_gui = Label(tk, text = calendar_, bg = "white", justify = LEFT)
calendar_gui.pack()

print(calendar_)

tk.geometry("1280x720")
tk.title("Calendar")
tk.configure(background = "white")

Answer 1

Change the font of the calendar_gui to Courier New , like this:

calendar_gui = tk.Label(window, text=calendar_, bg="white", font=("Courier New", 10, "bold))

This may not always work, however if you don't have Courier New in the font files.

Also, don't use wildcard imports ( from ... import * ) and don't name your window tk . It can mess things up.
