My TKinter textbox formats weirdly and does not look like the command text. I have a pandas db and it inserts it weirdly. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?


        table = PrettyTable()

        # Set the column names
        table.field_names = df.columns.tolist()
        for row in df.itertuples(index=False):
            table.add_row(row)
        textbox_string = str(table)
        #df.columns = ['owner ', 'project ', 'branch ', 'updated ', 'insertions ', 'deletions ']
        #df.style.set_properties(subset=pd.IndexSlice[:, :], **{'width': '50px'})
       
        #textbox_string = df.to_string(index=True, justify='center')
        print(textbox_string)
        root.textbox.configure(font=("Roboto", 14))
        root.textbox.insert("0.0",textbox_string)

Console text the console text Here's how the GUI shows it TKinter textbox text

I'm a bit new on this. Does anyone have any idea?

I've tried multiple things, but none have worked

CodePudding user response:

Replace this line

root.textbox.configure(font=("Roboto", 14))

with this

root.textbox.configure(font='TkFixedFont')

This will use the system monospace font. If you prefer to explicitly set it to Roboto, use Roboto Mono instead, like this:

root.textbox.configure(font=("Roboto Mono", 14))
