: mod: tkinter.ttk — Widgets temáticos do Tk

Código-fonte: Lib/tkinter/ttk.py


The tkinter.ttk module provides access to the Tk themed widget set, introduced in Tk 8.5. If Python has not been compiled against Tk 8.5, this module can still be accessed if Tile has been installed. The former method using Tk 8.5 provides additional benefits including anti-aliased font rendering under X11 and window transparency (requiring a composition window manager on X11).

A ideia básica para tkinter.ttk é separar, na medida do possível, o código que implementa o comportamento de widget do código que implementa sua aparência.

Tk Widget Styling Support

Um documento que apresenta o suporte de temas para Tk

Usando Ttk

Para começar a usar Ttk, importe seu módulo:

from tkinter import ttk

Para substituir os widgets básicos do Tk, a importação deve seguir a importação do Tk:

from tkinter import *
from tkinter.ttk import *

Esse código faz com que vários widgets tkinter.ttk (Button, Checkbutton, Entry, Frame, Label, LabelFrame, Menubutton, PanedWindow, Radiobutton, Scale e Scrollbar) substituam automaticamente os widgets Tk.

Isso traz o benefício direto de utilizar os widgets novos que possuem melhor aparência e sensação de uso entre as plataformas, contudo, os widgets substitutos não são completamente compatíveis. A maior diferença é que as opções como “fg”, “bg” e outras relacionadas à estilização do widget não estão mais presentes nos widgets Ttk. Em vez disso, use a classe ttk.Style para melhores efeitos de estilização.

Widgets Ttk

Ttk traz 18 widgets, das quais doze já existiam no tkinter: Button, Checkbutton, Entry, Frame, Label, LabelFrame, Menubutton, PanedWindow, Radiobutton, Scale, Scrollbar, e Spinbox. As outras seis são novas: Combobox, Notebook, Progressbar, Separator, Sizegrip e Treeview. E todas elas são subclasses de Widget.

Utilizar os widgets Ttk melhora a experiência de uso e o visual da aplicação. Conforme discutido anteriormente, existem diferenças em como a estilização é codificada.

Código Tk:

l1 = tkinter.Label(text="Test", fg="black", bg="white")
l2 = tkinter.Label(text="Test", fg="black", bg="white")

Código Ttk:

style = ttk.Style()
style.configure("BW.TLabel", foreground="black", background="white")

l1 = ttk.Label(text="Test", style="BW.TLabel")
l2 = ttk.Label(text="Test", style="BW.TLabel")

Para mais informações sobre TtkStyling, veja a documentação da classe Style.

Widget

ttk.Widget define opções padrão e métodos suportados pelos widgets temáticos Tk e não deve ser instanciada diretamente.

Opções padrão

All the ttk Widgets accepts the following options:

Opção

Descrição

classe

Specifies the window class. The class is used when querying the option database for the window’s other options, to determine the default bindtags for the window, and to select the widget’s default layout and style. This option is read-only, and may only be specified when the window is created.

cursor

Especifica o cursor do mouse a ser utilizado pelo widget. Caso seja definido como uma string vazia (padrão), o cursor é herdado do widget pai.

takefocus

Determina se a janela aceitará foco durante a navegação com o teclado. Retorna 0, 1 ou uma string vazia. Caso retorne 0, significa que a janela deve ser completamente ignorada durante a navegação com o teclado. Caso retorne 1, significa que a janela receberá as entradas do teclado enquanto estiver visível. E a string vazia significa que os scripts de navegação determinam quando a janela recebe foco ou não.

estilo

Pode ser utilizado para especificar um estilo customizado do widget.

Opções de ferramenta rolável

As opções a seguir são suportadas pelos widgets que são controlados por uma barra de rolagem.

Opção

Descrição

xscrollcommand

Utilizado para comunicação com barras de rolagem horizontais.

Quando a visualização na janela do widget mudar, o widget irá gerar um comando Tcl baseado no comando da barra de rolagem.

Geralmente essa opção consiste no método Scrollbar.set() de alguma barra de rolagem. Isso fará com que a barra de rolagem seja atualizada sempre que a visualização da janela mude.

yscrollcommand

Utilizado para comunicação com barras de rolagem verticais. Para mais informações, veja acima.

Opções de rótulo

As opções a seguir são suportadas por rótulos, botões e outros widgets semelhantes.

Opção

Descrição

text

Especifica uma string para exibição dentro do widget.

textvariable

Specifies a name whose value will be used in place of the text option resource.

underline

Caso definido, especifica o índice (base-0) de um caractere para sublinhamento na string de texto. O caractere sublinhado é utilizado para ativação mnemônica.

image

Specifies an image to display. This is a list of 1 or more elements. The first element is the default image name. The rest of the list if a sequence of statespec/value pairs as defined by Style.map(), specifying different images to use when the widget is in a particular state or a combination of states. All images in the list should have the same size.

compound

Specifies how to display the image relative to the text, in the case both text and images options are present. Valid values are:

  • texto: exibir apenas texto

  • imagem: exibir apenas a imagem

  • top, bottom, left, right: display image above, below, left of, or right of the text, respectively.

  • none: the default. display the image if present, otherwise the text.

width

Caso maior que zero, especifica quanto espaço, em largura de caracteres, alocar para o rótulo do texto, se menor que zero, especifica a largura mínima. Se zero ou inespecífico, é utilizada a largura normal do rótulo de texto.

Opções de compatibilidade

Opção

Descrição

state

May be set to “normal” or “disabled” to control the “disabled” state bit. This is a write-only option: setting it changes the widget state, but the Widget.state() method does not affect this option.

Estados de Widget

O estado do widget é um bitmap de sinalizadores de estado independentes.

Sinalizador

Descrição

active

O cursor do mouse está sobre o widget e pressionar um botão do mouse causará alguma ação

disabled

Widget is disabled under program control

focus

Widget tem foco do teclado

pressed

Widget está sendo pressionado

selected

“On”, “true”, or “current” for things like Checkbuttons and radiobuttons

background

Windows e Mac possuem uma noção de janela “ativa” ou em primeiro plano. O estado de “plano de fundo” é definido para widgets em uma janela no plano de fundo, e limpo para aqueles na janela de primeiro plano

readonly

Widget não deve permitir modificação do usuário

alternate

Um formato de exibição específico do widget

invalid

O valor do widget é inválido

Uma especificação de estado é uma sequência de nomes de estado, opcionalmente prefixada por um ponto de exclamação indicando que o bit está desligado.

ttk.Widget

Além dos métodos descritos abaixo, a classe ttk.Widget oferece suporte aos métodos tkinter.Widget.cget() e tkinter.Widget.configure().

class tkinter.ttk.Widget
identify(x, y)

Retorna o nome do elemento na posição x y, ou a string vazia caso o ponto não esteja dentro de algum elemento.

x e y são coordenadas de pixel relativas ao widget.

instate(statespec, callback=None, *args, **kw)

Test the widget’s state. If a callback is not specified, returns True if the widget state matches statespec and False otherwise. If callback is specified then it is called with args if widget state matches statespec.

state(statespec=None)

Modify or inquire widget state. If statespec is specified, sets the widget state according to it and return a new statespec indicating which flags were changed. If statespec is not specified, returns the currently enabled state flags.

statespec will usually be a list or a tuple.

Combobox

The ttk.Combobox widget combines a text field with a pop-down list of values. This widget is a subclass of Entry.

Besides the methods inherited from Widget: Widget.cget(), Widget.configure(), Widget.identify(), Widget.instate() and Widget.state(), and the following inherited from Entry: Entry.bbox(), Entry.delete(), Entry.icursor(), Entry.index(), Entry.insert(), Entry.selection(), Entry.xview(), it has some other methods, described at ttk.Combobox.

Opções

This widget accepts the following specific options:

Opção

Descrição

exportselection

Boolean value. If set, the widget selection is linked to the Window Manager selection (which can be returned by invoking Misc.selection_get, for example).

justify

height

Specifies the height of the pop-down listbox, in rows.

postcommand

A script (possibly registered with Misc.register) that is called immediately before displaying the values. It may specify which values to display.

state

One of “normal”, “readonly”, or “disabled”. In the “readonly” state, the value may not be edited directly, and the user can only selection of the values from the dropdown list. In the “normal” state, the text field is directly editable. In the “disabled” state, no interaction is possible.

textvariable

Specifies a name whose value is linked to the widget value. Whenever the value associated with that name changes, the widget value is updated, and vice versa. See tkinter.StringVar.

valores

Specifies the list of values to display in the drop-down listbox.

width

Specifies an integer value indicating the desired width of the entry window, in average-size characters of the widget’s font.

Virtual events

The combobox widgets generates a <<ComboboxSelected>> virtual event when the user selects an element from the list of values.

ttk.Combobox

class tkinter.ttk.Combobox
current(newindex=None)

If newindex is specified, sets the combobox value to the element position newindex. Otherwise, returns the index of the current value or -1 if the current value is not in the values list.

get()

Returns the current value of the combobox.

set(value)

Sets the value of the combobox to value.

Spinbox

The ttk.Spinbox widget is a ttk.Entry enhanced with increment and decrement arrows. It can be used for numbers or lists of string values. This widget is a subclass of Entry.

Besides the methods inherited from Widget: Widget.cget(), Widget.configure(), Widget.identify(), Widget.instate() and Widget.state(), and the following inherited from Entry: Entry.bbox(), Entry.delete(), Entry.icursor(), Entry.index(), Entry.insert(), Entry.xview(), it has some other methods, described at ttk.Spinbox.

Opções

This widget accepts the following specific options:

Opção

Descrição

from

Float value. If set, this is the minimum value to which the decrement button will decrement. Must be spelled as from_ when used as an argument, since from is a Python keyword.

para

Float value. If set, this is the maximum value to which the increment button will increment.

increment

Float value. Specifies the amount which the increment/decrement buttons change the value. Defaults to 1.0.

valores

Sequence of string or float values. If specified, the increment/decrement buttons will cycle through the items in this sequence rather than incrementing or decrementing numbers.

wrap

Boolean value. If True, increment and decrement buttons will cycle from the to value to the from value or the from value to the to value, respectively.

formato

String value. This specifies the format of numbers set by the increment/decrement buttons. It must be in the form “%W.Pf”, where W is the padded width of the value, P is the precision, and ‘%’ and ‘f’ are literal.

command

Python callable. Will be called with no arguments whenever either of the increment or decrement buttons are pressed.

Virtual events

The spinbox widget generates an <<Increment>> virtual event when the user presses <Up>, and a <<Decrement>> virtual event when the user presses <Down>.

ttk.Spinbox

class tkinter.ttk.Spinbox
get()

Returns the current value of the spinbox.

set(value)

Sets the value of the spinbox to value.

Notebook

Ttk Notebook widget manages a collection of windows and displays a single one at a time. Each child window is associated with a tab, which the user may select to change the currently displayed window.

Opções

This widget accepts the following specific options:

Opção

Descrição

height

If present and greater than zero, specifies the desired height of the pane area (not including internal padding or tabs). Otherwise, the maximum height of all panes is used.

padding

Specifies the amount of extra space to add around the outside of the notebook. The padding is a list up to four length specifications left top right bottom. If fewer than four elements are specified, bottom defaults to top, right defaults to left, and top defaults to left.

width

If present and greater than zero, specified the desired width of the pane area (not including internal padding). Otherwise, the maximum width of all panes is used.

Tab Options

There are also specific options for tabs:

Opção

Descrição

state

Either “normal”, “disabled” or “hidden”. If “disabled”, then the tab is not selectable. If “hidden”, then the tab is not shown.

sticky

Specifies how the child window is positioned within the pane area. Value is a string containing zero or more of the characters “n”, “s”, “e” or “w”. Each letter refers to a side (north, south, east or west) that the child window will stick to, as per the grid() geometry manager.

padding

Specifies the amount of extra space to add between the notebook and this pane. Syntax is the same as for the option padding used by this widget.

text

Specifies a text to be displayed in the tab.

image

Specifies an image to display in the tab. See the option image described in Widget.

compound

Specifies how to display the image relative to the text, in the case both options text and image are present. See Label Options for legal values.

underline

Specifies the index (0-based) of a character to underline in the text string. The underlined character is used for mnemonic activation if Notebook.enable_traversal() is called.

Tab Identifiers

The tab_id present in several methods of ttk.Notebook may take any of the following forms:

  • An integer between zero and the number of tabs

  • The name of a child window

  • A positional specification of the form “@x,y”, which identifies the tab

  • The literal string “current”, which identifies the currently selected tab

  • The literal string “end”, which returns the number of tabs (only valid for Notebook.index())

Virtual Events

This widget generates a <<NotebookTabChanged>> virtual event after a new tab is selected.

ttk.Notebook

class tkinter.ttk.Notebook
add(child, **kw)

Adds a new tab to the notebook.

If window is currently managed by the notebook but hidden, it is restored to its previous position.

See Tab Options for the list of available options.

forget(tab_id)

Removes the tab specified by tab_id, unmaps and unmanages the associated window.

hide(tab_id)

Hides the tab specified by tab_id.

The tab will not be displayed, but the associated window remains managed by the notebook and its configuration remembered. Hidden tabs may be restored with the add() command.

identify(x, y)

Returns the name of the tab element at position x, y, or the empty string if none.

index(tab_id)

Returns the numeric index of the tab specified by tab_id, or the total number of tabs if tab_id is the string “end”.

insert(pos, child, **kw)

Inserts a pane at the specified position.

pos is either the string “end”, an integer index, or the name of a managed child. If child is already managed by the notebook, moves it to the specified position.

See Tab Options for the list of available options.

select(tab_id=None)

Selects the specified tab_id.

The associated child window will be displayed, and the previously selected window (if different) is unmapped. If tab_id is omitted, returns the widget name of the currently selected pane.

tab(tab_id, option=None, **kw)

Query or modify the options of the specific tab_id.

If kw is not given, returns a dictionary of the tab option values. If option is specified, returns the value of that option. Otherwise, sets the options to the corresponding values.

tabs()

Returns a list of windows managed by the notebook.

enable_traversal()

Enable keyboard traversal for a toplevel window containing this notebook.

This will extend the bindings for the toplevel window containing the notebook as follows:

  • Control-Tab: selects the tab following the currently selected one.

  • Shift-Control-Tab: selects the tab preceding the currently selected one.

  • Alt-K: where K is the mnemonic (underlined) character of any tab, will select that tab.

Multiple notebooks in a single toplevel may be enabled for traversal, including nested notebooks. However, notebook traversal only works properly if all panes have the notebook they are in as master.

Progressbar

The ttk.Progressbar widget shows the status of a long-running operation. It can operate in two modes: 1) the determinate mode which shows the amount completed relative to the total amount of work to be done and 2) the indeterminate mode which provides an animated display to let the user know that work is progressing.

Opções

This widget accepts the following specific options:

Opção

Descrição

orient

One of “horizontal” or “vertical”. Specifies the orientation of the progress bar.

length

Specifies the length of the long axis of the progress bar (width if horizontal, height if vertical).

modo

One of “determinate” or “indeterminate”.

maximum

A number specifying the maximum value. Defaults to 100.

valor

The current value of the progress bar. In “determinate” mode, this represents the amount of work completed. In “indeterminate” mode, it is interpreted as modulo maximum; that is, the progress bar completes one “cycle” when its value increases by maximum.

variável

A name which is linked to the option value. If specified, the value of the progress bar is automatically set to the value of this name whenever the latter is modified.

phase

Read-only option. The widget periodically increments the value of this option whenever its value is greater than 0 and, in determinate mode, less than maximum. This option may be used by the current theme to provide additional animation effects.

ttk.Progressbar

class tkinter.ttk.Progressbar
start(interval=None)

Begin autoincrement mode: schedules a recurring timer event that calls Progressbar.step() every interval milliseconds. If omitted, interval defaults to 50 milliseconds.

step(amount=None)

Increments the progress bar’s value by amount.

amount defaults to 1.0 if omitted.

stop()

Stop autoincrement mode: cancels any recurring timer event initiated by Progressbar.start() for this progress bar.

Separator

The ttk.Separator widget displays a horizontal or vertical separator bar.

It has no other methods besides the ones inherited from ttk.Widget.

Opções

This widget accepts the following specific option:

Opção

Descrição

orient

One of “horizontal” or “vertical”. Specifies the orientation of the separator.

Sizegrip

The ttk.Sizegrip widget (also known as a grow box) allows the user to resize the containing toplevel window by pressing and dragging the grip.

This widget has neither specific options nor specific methods, besides the ones inherited from ttk.Widget.

Platform-specific notes

  • On macOS, toplevel windows automatically include a built-in size grip by default. Adding a Sizegrip is harmless, since the built-in grip will just mask the widget.

Bugs

  • If the containing toplevel’s position was specified relative to the right or bottom of the screen (e.g. ….), the Sizegrip widget will not resize the window.

  • This widget supports only “southeast” resizing.

Treeview

The ttk.Treeview widget displays a hierarchical collection of items. Each item has a textual label, an optional image, and an optional list of data values. The data values are displayed in successive columns after the tree label.

The order in which data values are displayed may be controlled by setting the widget option displaycolumns. The tree widget can also display column headings. Columns may be accessed by number or symbolic names listed in the widget option columns. See Column Identifiers.

Each item is identified by a unique name. The widget will generate item IDs if they are not supplied by the caller. There is a distinguished root item, named {}. The root item itself is not displayed; its children appear at the top level of the hierarchy.

Each item also has a list of tags, which can be used to associate event bindings with individual items and control the appearance of the item.

The Treeview widget supports horizontal and vertical scrolling, according to the options described in Scrollable Widget Options and the methods Treeview.xview() and Treeview.yview().

Opções

This widget accepts the following specific options:

Opção

Descrição

columns

A list of column identifiers, specifying the number of columns and their names.

displaycolumns

A list of column identifiers (either symbolic or integer indices) specifying which data columns are displayed and the order in which they appear, or the string “#all”.

height

Specifies the number of rows which should be visible. Note: the requested width is determined from the sum of the column widths.

padding

Specifies the internal padding for the widget. The padding is a list of up to four length specifications.

selectmode

Controls how the built-in class bindings manage the selection. One of “extended”, “browse” or “none”. If set to “extended” (the default), multiple items may be selected. If “browse”, only a single item will be selected at a time. If “none”, the selection will not be changed.

Note that the application code and tag bindings can set the selection however they wish, regardless of the value of this option.

show

A list containing zero or more of the following values, specifying which elements of the tree to display.

  • tree: display tree labels in column #0.

  • headings: display the heading row.

The default is “tree headings”, i.e., show all elements.

Note: Column #0 always refers to the tree column, even if show=”tree” is not specified.

Item Options

The following item options may be specified for items in the insert and item widget commands.

Opção

Descrição

text

The textual label to display for the item.

image

A Tk Image, displayed to the left of the label.

valores

The list of values associated with the item.

Each item should have the same number of values as the widget option columns. If there are fewer values than columns, the remaining values are assumed empty. If there are more values than columns, the extra values are ignored.

open

True/False value indicating whether the item’s children should be displayed or hidden.

tags

A list of tags associated with this item.

Tag Options

The following options may be specified on tags:

Opção

Descrição

foreground

Specifies the text foreground color.

background

Specifies the cell or item background color.

font

Specifies the font to use when drawing text.

image

Specifies the item image, in case the item’s image option is empty.

Column Identifiers

Column identifiers take any of the following forms:

  • A symbolic name from the list of columns option.

  • An integer n, specifying the nth data column.

  • A string of the form #n, where n is an integer, specifying the nth display column.

Notas:

  • Item’s option values may be displayed in a different order than the order in which they are stored.

  • Column #0 always refers to the tree column, even if show=”tree” is not specified.

A data column number is an index into an item’s option values list; a display column number is the column number in the tree where the values are displayed. Tree labels are displayed in column #0. If option displaycolumns is not set, then data column n is displayed in column #n+1. Again, column #0 always refers to the tree column.

Virtual Events

The Treeview widget generates the following virtual events.

Evento

Descrição

<<TreeviewSelect>>

Generated whenever the selection changes.

<<TreeviewOpen>>

Generated just before settings the focus item to open=True.

<<TreeviewClose>>

Availability: Tk 8.6

xview(*args)

Query or modify horizontal position of the treeview.

yview(*args)

Query or modify vertical position of the treeview.

Ttk Styling

Each widget in ttk is assigned a style, which specifies the set of elements making up the widget and how they are arranged, along with dynamic and default settings for element options. By default the style name is the same as the widget’s class name, but it may be overridden by the widget’s style option. If you don’t know the class name of a widget, use the method Misc.winfo_class() (somewidget.winfo_class()).

configure(style, query_opt=None, **kw)

Query or set the default value of the specified option(s) in style.

Each key in kw is an option and each value is a string identifying the value for that option.

For example, to change every default button to be a flat button with some padding and a different background color:

from tkinter import ttk
import tkinter

root = tkinter.Tk()

ttk.Style().configure("TButton", padding=6, relief="flat",
   background="#ccc")

btn = ttk.Button(text="Sample")
btn.pack()

root.mainloop()
map(style, query_opt=None, **kw)

Query or sets dynamic values of the specified option(s) in style.

Each key in kw is an option and each value should be a list or a tuple (usually) containing statespecs grouped in tuples, lists, or some other preference. A statespec is a compound of one or more states and then a value.

An example may make it more understandable:

import tkinter
from tkinter import ttk

root = tkinter.Tk()

style = ttk.Style()
style.map("C.TButton",
    foreground=[('pressed', 'red'), ('active', 'blue')],
    background=[('pressed', '!disabled', 'black'), ('active', 'white')]
    )

colored_btn = ttk.Button(text="Test", style="C.TButton").pack()

root.mainloop()

Note that the order of the (states, value) sequences for an option does matter, if the order is changed to [('active', 'blue'), ('pressed', 'red')] in the foreground option, for example, the result would be a blue foreground when the widget were in active or pressed states.

lookup(style, option, state=None, default=None)

Returns the value specified for option in style.

If state is specified, it is expected to be a sequence of one or more states. If the default argument is set, it is used as a fallback value in case no specification for option is found.

To check what font a Button uses by default:

from tkinter import ttk

print(ttk.Style().lookup("TButton", "font"))
layout(style, layoutspec=None)

Define the widget layout for given style. If layoutspec is omitted, return the layout specification for given style.

layoutspec, if specified, is expected to be a list or some other sequence type (excluding strings), where each item should be a tuple and the first item is the layout name and the second item should have the format described in Layouts.

To understand the format, see the following example (it is not intended to do anything useful):

from tkinter import ttk
import tkinter

root = tkinter.Tk()

style = ttk.Style()
style.layout("TMenubutton", [
   ("Menubutton.background", None),
   ("Menubutton.button", {"children":
       [("Menubutton.focus", {"children":
           [("Menubutton.padding", {"children":
               [("Menubutton.label", {"side": "left", "expand": 1})]
           })]
       })]
   }),
])

mbtn = ttk.Menubutton(text='Text')
mbtn.pack()
root.mainloop()
element_create(elementname, etype, *args, **kw)

Create a new element in the current theme, of the given etype which is expected to be either “image”, “from” or “vsapi”. The latter is only available in Tk 8.6a for Windows XP and Vista and is not described here.

If “image” is used, args should contain the default image name followed by statespec/value pairs (this is the imagespec), and kw may have the following options:

  • border=padding

    padding is a list of up to four integers, specifying the left, top, right, and bottom borders, respectively.

  • height=height

    Specifies a minimum height for the element. If less than zero, the base image’s height is used as a default.

  • padding=padding

    Specifies the element’s interior padding. Defaults to border’s value if not specified.

  • sticky=spec

    Specifies how the image is placed within the final parcel. spec contains zero or more characters “n”, “s”, “w”, or “e”.

  • width=width

    Specifies a minimum width for the element. If less than zero, the base image’s width is used as a default.

If “from” is used as the value of etype, element_create() will clone an existing element. args is expected to contain a themename, from which the element will be cloned, and optionally an element to clone from. If this element to clone from is not specified, an empty element will be used. kw is discarded.

element_names()

Returns the list of elements defined in the current theme.

element_options(elementname)

Returns the list of elementname’s options.

theme_create(themename, parent=None, settings=None)

Create a new theme.

It is an error if themename already exists. If parent is specified, the new theme will inherit styles, elements and layouts from the parent theme. If settings are present they are expected to have the same syntax used for theme_settings().

theme_settings(themename, settings)

Temporarily sets the current theme to themename, apply specified settings and then restore the previous theme.

Each key in settings is a style and each value may contain the keys ‘configure’, ‘map’, ‘layout’ and ‘element create’ and they are expected to have the same format as specified by the methods Style.configure(), Style.map(), Style.layout() and Style.element_create() respectively.

As an example, let’s change the Combobox for the default theme a bit:

from tkinter import ttk
import tkinter

root = tkinter.Tk()

style = ttk.Style()
style.theme_settings("default", {
   "TCombobox": {
       "configure": {"padding": 5},
       "map": {
           "background": [("active", "green2"),
                          ("!disabled", "green4")],
           "fieldbackground": [("!disabled", "green3")],
           "foreground": [("focus", "OliveDrab1"),
                          ("!disabled", "OliveDrab2")]
       }
   }
})

combo = ttk.Combobox().pack()

root.mainloop()
theme_names()

Returns a list of all known themes.

theme_use(themename=None)

If themename is not given, returns the theme in use. Otherwise, sets the current theme to themename, refreshes all widgets and emits a <<ThemeChanged>> event.

Layouts

A layout can be just None, if it takes no options, or a dict of options specifying how to arrange the element. The layout mechanism uses a simplified version of the pack geometry manager: given an initial cavity, each element is allocated a parcel. Valid options/values are:

  • side: whichside

    Specifies which side of the cavity to place the element; one of top, right, bottom or left. If omitted, the element occupies the entire cavity.

  • sticky: nswe

    Specifies where the element is placed inside its allocated parcel.

  • unit: 0 or 1

    If set to 1, causes the element and all of its descendants to be treated as a single element for the purposes of Widget.identify() et al. It’s used for things like scrollbar thumbs with grips.

  • children: [sublayout… ]

    Specifies a list of elements to place inside the element. Each element is a tuple (or other sequence type) where the first item is the layout name, and the other is a Layout.
