Python GUI Layots Absolute, Package, Grid

Layout management in Tkinter

In this part of the Tkinter programming tutorial, we introduce layout managers.
When we design the GUI of our application, we decide what widgets we will use and how we will organise those widgets in the application. To organise our widgets, we use specialised non-visible objects called layout managers.
There are two kinds of widgets: containers and their children. The containers group their children into suitable layouts.
Tkinter has three built-in layout managers: the pack, grid, and place managers. The place geometry manager positions widgets using absolute positioning. The pack geometry manager organises widgets in horizontal and vertical boxes. The grid geometry manager places widgets in a two dimensional grid.

Absolute positioning

In most cases, programmers should use layout managers. There are a few situations where we could use absolute positioning. In absolute positioning, the programmer specifies the position and the size of each widget in pixels. The size and the position of a widget do not change if we resize a window. Applications look different on various platforms, and what looks OK on Linux, might not look OK on Mac OS. Changing fonts in our application might spoil the layout. If we translate our application into another language, we must redo our layout.

In this example, we place three images using absolute positioning. We use the place geometry manager.
from PIL import Image, ImageTk
We use Image and ImageTk from the Python Imaging Library (PIL) module.
style = Style()
style.configure("TFrame", background="#333") 
We configure our frame to have a dark gray background using styles.
bard = Image.open("bardejov.jpg")
bardejov = ImageTk.PhotoImage(bard)
We create an image object and a photo image object from an image in the current working directory.
label1 = Label(self, image=bardejov)
We create a Label with an image. Labels can contain text or images.
label1.image = bardejov
We must keep the reference to the image to prevent image from being garbage collected.
label1.place(x=20, y=20)
The label is placed on the frame at x=20 and y=20 coordinates.

Pack manager

The pack geometry manager organises widgets in horizontal and vertical boxes. The layout is controlled with the fill, expand, and side options.

Buttons example

In the following example, we position two buttons in the bottom-right corner of the window. We use the pack manager.

if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()  
We have two frames. There is the base frame and an additional frame, which expands in both directions and push the two buttons to the bottom of the base frame. The buttons are placed in a horizontal box and placed to the right of this box.
frame = Frame(self, relief=RAISED, borderwidth=1)
frame.pack(fill=BOTH, expand=True)
We create another Frame widget. This widget takes the bulk of the area. We change the border of the frame so that the frame is visible; by default it is flat.
closeButton = Button(self, text="Close")
closeButton.pack(side=RIGHT, padx=5, pady=5)
A closeButton is created. It is put into a horizontal box. The side parameter causes the button to be placed to the right of the horizontal. The padx and the pady parameters put some space between the widgets. The padx puts some space between the button widgets and between the closeButton and the right border of the root window. The pady puts some space between the button widgets and the borders of the frame and the borders of the root window.
okButton.pack(side=RIGHT)
The okButton is placed next to the closeButton with 5 px space between them.

Review example

The pack manager is a simple layout manager. It can be used to do simple layout tasks. In order to create more complicated layouts, we need to utilise more frames, each having its own pack manager.

The example shows how to create a more complex layout with multiple frames and pack managers.
self.pack(fill=BOTH, expand=True)
The first frame is the base frame, on which other frames are placed. Note that in addition to organising children within frames, we also manage the frames on the base frame.
frame1 = Frame(self)
frame1.pack(fill=X)

lbl1 = Label(frame1, text="Title", width=6)
lbl1.pack(side=LEFT, padx=5, pady=5)           

entry1 = Entry(frame1)
entry1.pack(fill=X, padx=5, expand=True)
The first two widgets are placed on the first frame. The entry is horizontally streched with the fill and the expand parameters.
frame3 = Frame(self)
frame3.pack(fill=BOTH, expand=True)

lbl3 = Label(frame3, text="Review", width=6)
lbl3.pack(side=LEFT, anchor=N, padx=5, pady=5)        

txt = Text(frame3)
txt.pack(fill=BOTH, pady=5, padx=5, expand=True) 
Inside the third frame, we place a label and a text widget. The label is anchored to the north. The text widget takes the whole remaining area.

The grid manager is used to organize buttons in the frame container.
Style().configure("TButton", padding=(0, 5, 0, 5), 
    font='serif 10')
We configure the Button widget to have a specific font and to have some internal padding.
self.columnconfigure(0, pad=3)
...        
self.rowconfigure(0, pad=3)
We use the columnconfigure() and the rowconfigure() methods to define some space in grid columns and rows. This way we achieve that the buttons are separated by some space.
entry = Entry(self)
entry.grid(row=0, columnspan=4, sticky=W+E)
The Entry widget is where the digits are displayed. The widget is placed in the first row and it spans all four columns. Widgets may not occupy all the space allotted by cells in the grid. The sticky parameter expands the widget in a given direction. In our case we ensure that the entry widget is expanded from left to right.
cls = Button(self, text="Cls")
cls.grid(row=1, column=0)
The cls button is placed in the second row and first column. Note that the rows and columns start at zero.
self.pack()
The pack() method shows the frame widget and gives it initial size. If no other parameters are given, the size will be just enough to show all children. This method packs the frame widget to the toplevel root window, which is also a container. The grid geometry manager is used to organize buttons in the frame widget.

In this example, we use a Label widget, a Text widget, and four buttons.
self.columnconfigure(1, weight=1)
self.columnconfigure(3, pad=7)
self.rowconfigure(3, weight=1)
self.rowconfigure(5, pad=7)
We define some space among widgets in the grid. The weight parameter makes the second column and fourth row growable. This row and column is occupied by the text widget, so all the extra space is taken by it.
lbl = Label(self, text="Windows")
lbl.grid(sticky=W, pady=4, padx=5)
The label widget is created and put into the grid. If no column and row is specified, then the first column or row is assumed. The label sticks to the west and it has some padding around its borders.
area = Text(self)
area.grid(row=1, column=0, columnspan=2, rowspan=4, 
    padx=5, sticky=E+W+S+N)
The text widget is created and starts from the second row and first column. It spans two columns and four rows. There is a 4 px space between the widget and the left border of the root window. Finally, the widget sticks to all the four sides. So when the window is resized, the text widget grows in all directions.
abtn = Button(self, text="Activate")
abtn.grid(row=1, column=3)

cbtn = Button(self, text="Close")
cbtn.grid(row=2, column=3, pady=4)
These two buttons go next to the text widget.
hbtn = Button(self, text="Help")
hbtn.grid(row=5, column=0, padx=5)

obtn = Button(self, text="OK")
obtn.grid(row=5, column=3)  
These two buttons go below the text widget; the Help button takes the first column, the Ok Button takes the last column.
