Text issues with Abspath-CodePudding

I've been using CURRENT_DIR=os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__)) and it has been working well.

However, for whatever reason when I have any path with a /N such as

tk.PhotoImage(f'{CURRENT_DIR}\Library\Images\NA_notes.png')

wb.open_new(f'{CURRENT_DIR}\Library\PD\Vender\No Hold Open\DOOR.pdf')

I get:

SyntaxError: (unicode error) 'unicodeescape' codec can't decode bytes in position 15-16: malformed \N character escape

It gets fixed if I just change the /N to /n

The problem is I have hundreds of these instances within a ton of folders, so is there any way to fix this without having to change every single folder name?

If you don't want to change path then simply say to python it's raw string.

print(fr'{CURRENT_DIR}\Library\Images\NA_notes.png')

CodePudding user response：

Try escaping your location as \ is used for several escape sequence characters. You can do this by replacing \ with \\. Some thing like this:

tk.PhotoImage(f'{CURRENT_DIR}\\Library\\Images\\NA_notes.png')
wb.open_new(f'{CURRENT_DIR}\\Library\\PD\\Vender\\No Hold Open\\DOOR.pdf')
