Using Checkbox Widget In Python GUI Application

Intro

In this blog, I am going to create a checkbox widget in Python GUI application. It will display the checkbox's status on the application screen.

Software requirement

Python 3.5 and IDLE (Python 3.5)

Programming code

#Checkbox Using Application
import tkinter as tk
from tkinter import ttk
win = tk.Tk()
win.title("Python GUI App")
#Label Creation
ttk.Label(win, text="Checkbox status :").grid(column=0,row=0)
#Create three Checkbox
#Disabled Checkbox
chVarDis=tk.IntVar()
check1=tk.Checkbutton(win, text="Disabled", variable=chVarDis, state='disabled')
check1.select()
check1.grid(column=0,row=4, sticky=tk.W)
#Deselected Checkbox
chVarUn=tk.IntVar()
check2=tk.Checkbutton(win, text="UnChecked", variable=chVarUn)
check2.deselect()
check2.grid(column=1,row=4, sticky=tk.W)
#Selected Checkbox
chVarEn=tk.IntVar()
check3=tk.Checkbutton(win, text="Enabled", variable=chVarEn)
check3.select()
check3.grid(column=2,row=4, sticky=tk.W)
#Calling Main()
win.mainloop()

About the code

• First, import the tkinter module.
• Next, assign a class and variables and give application title.
• Next, create three checkboxes and its status.
• Finally, I have started the Windows event loop by calling the main loop method, then executed the code.
