Sorry if the title is confusing I don't really know how to word it properly. Hopefully the code below will clear it up.
When I run the programme and I call print_names()
, only the last name "Jenny" shows up.
While if I call the other two functions, all the items in the corresponding list show up.
However unless I add 'row=' then the different functions print on separate rows.
I want to add row=
so I can stop the different functions printing below each other, but if I add it, it causes only the last name to be printed.
How do I stop this from happening?
from tkinter import *
from tkinter.font import BOLD
gui = Tk()
jnames = [['Jamie','25','Male'],['John','22','Male'],['Jenny','23','Female']]
def quit():
gui.quit()
def print_names():
for x in jnames:
Label(gui, text=((x[0]))).grid(column=0, row=3)
def print_ages():
for x in jnames:
Label(gui, text=((x[1]))).grid(column=1)
def print_gender():
for x in jnames:
Label(gui, text=((x[2]))).grid(column=2)
def main():
Button(gui, text='Quit', command=quit).grid(column=1, row=0, sticky=EW)
Button(gui, text='Print names', command=print_names).grid(column=0, row=1, sticky=EW)
Button(gui, text='Print age', command=print_ages).grid(column=1, row=1, sticky=EW)
Button(gui, text='Print gender', command=print_gender).grid(column=2, row=1, sticky=EW)
Label(gui, text='Name', font=BOLD, width=15).grid(column=0, row=2, sticky=EW)
Label(gui, text='Age', font=BOLD, width=15).grid(column=1, row=2, sticky=EW)
Label(gui, text='Gender', font=BOLD, width=15).grid(column=2, row=2, sticky=EW)
gui.mainloop()
main()
CodePudding user response:
You can generate a string with all the names (or ages or genders) and then place this in the desired column and row. Here is an example:
def print_names():
names = [x[0] for x in jnames]
Label(gui, text='\n'.join(names)).grid(column=0, row=3)
The above will simply create a multi-line string and add it to column 0 and row 3.
