Hi all I am new in python and in tkinter. I am trying to create a small app that will have some buttons and my logo on the grey area at right corner. Everything working fine but I have problems inserting the logo on the same window. The code I have attached is creating a second window with the logo. Any suggestions? Thanks

You can get the image on the same window by removing the code that creates the new window (between def get and def open_file ) and add it to the existing window like this:

txt_edit = tk.Text(window)
...
btn_exec = tk.Button(fr_buttons, text="Execute", command=runsomething)
img = ImageTk.PhotoImage(Image.open(".\logo.gif"))
lbl_logo = tk.Label(window, image = img)

btn_open.grid(row=0, column=0, sticky="ew", padx=5, pady=5)
...
lbl_logo.grid(row = 0, column = 2, sticky = "nesw")
