Making windows not appear over each other

Question

Is there a way to check if part or an entire window is over/under another window in python?

I have two windows and I'd like to make them not appear over each other. This is in Windows, using Tkinter.

Answer 1

You can use the methods winfo_rootx and winfo_rooty to get the x/y in the upper left corner. You can use winfo_width and winfo_height to get the width and height of the window. From that it's just a little math to figure out if two windows overlap. You can then use the geometry method to position the windows anywhere on the screen.
