How to add tkinter progress bar indeterminate with function-CodePudding

    progress = ttk.Progressbar(GUI, orient = HORIZONTAL, length = 100, mode = 'indeterminate')
    progress.pack(pady = 10)

    GUI.bind("<Return>", print_cf)

    GUI.focus()

DOTEST_GUI()

follow this code progress bar is not running properly.

I tried to remove stop_P(), it's work after 5 second of time.sleep(5).

I would like it to start running progress 5 second until the stop_P() code.

CodePudding user response：

If you want to run a Progressbar for a set amount of time and then stop it, you could do something like this. Consolidate the print_cf function to start and stop the progress and set a range of 5, sleep for 1 second in between and then stop the Progressbar. Placing it on a thread would allow you to do something more time consuming than sleeping one second and printing something.
