Creating and using a large number of objects with a non-preset name in Tkinter, Python-CodePudding

What I`m using: Tkinter lib, setattr() function

What I want: by using a for loop create some number of widgets with some parameters and roughly similar names. Then, I want to be able to set their location using the same loop

How it looks for me for now:

class Window(Tk):
    def __init__(self):
    Tk.__init__(self)
    for i in range(n):
        setattr(Label(self, text=f"name{i}", OTHER_OPTIONS), f"name{i}", _value)
        name{i}.place(y=0 10*i)

What I expect to see: a column of text from name0 to nameN with 10 units between each

For what I need it?: to create a function in which I can send parameters like name of object, text, background and other of label options

Thanks in advance for the answer!

CodePudding user response：

You're making this more difficult than it needs to be. Just store the labels in a list or dictionary.

self.labels = []
for i in range(n):
    label = Label(self, ...)
    self.labels.append(label)

I also strongly recommend against place. It's much easier to create responsive applications using pack and grid. With place you have to a lot more work, and it's easy to create a UI that looks good only looks good for one specific configuration (resolution, default font, window size).
