I'm new to Graphic User Interface using Python. I was able to open the register page after clicking the Register button from the login page.
Below is the code files:
login.py
from tkinter import *
from tkinter import ttk
from register import Register
class Login:
def __init__(self):
self.loginw = Tk()
self.loginw.title("Login")
self.loginw.geometry("500x500")
self.signin = Button(self.loginw,width=20, text="Register", command=self.register)
self.signin.place(relx=0.5, rely=0.5, anchor=CENTER)
def register(self):
win = Toplevel()
Register(win)
w=Login()
w.loginw.mainloop()
register.py
from tkinter import *
from tkinter import ttk
class Register:
def __init__(self, win):
self.reg = win
self.reg.title("Register")
self.reg.geometry("500x500")
self.revert = Button(self.reg,width=20, text="Return to Login")
self.revert.place(relx=0.5, rely=0.5, anchor=CENTER)
self.reg.mainloop()
Is there a way to write the code like:
- After clicking the
register
button from the login page, the register page pops up and the login page disappears. - After clicking the
Return to Login
button from the register page, the register page disappears, and the login page comes back.
Thank you so much.

Taken from another stackoverflow question:
import tkinter as tk # python 3
from tkinter import font as tkfont # python 3
class SampleApp(tk.Tk):
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
tk.Tk.__init__(self, *args, **kwargs)
self.title_font = tkfont.Font(family='Helvetica', size=18, weight="bold", slant="italic")
# the container is where we'll stack a bunch of frames
# on top of each other, then the one we want visible
# will be raised above the others
container = tk.Frame(self)
container.pack(side="top", fill="both", expand=True)
container.grid_rowconfigure(0, weight=1)
container.grid_columnconfigure(0, weight=1)
self.frames = {}
for F in (StartPage, PageOne, PageTwo):
page_name = F.__name__
frame = F(parent=container, controller=self)
self.frames[page_name] = frame
# put all of the pages in the same location;
# the one on the top of the stacking order
# will be the one that is visible.
frame.grid(row=0, column=0, sticky="nsew")
self.show_frame("StartPage")
def show_frame(self, page_name):
'''Show a frame for the given page name'''

frame.tkraise()

tk.Frame.__init__(self, parent)
self.controller = controller

In your case class StartPage could be your register page and PageOne your Login page. take that piece of code as a base to start.
Switch between two frames in tkinter
In this case the SampleApp class acts like the master frame (is a container) for other frames. So there is no pop up windows.
Another base template for tkinter app. Taken from the same link:
import tkinter as tk
class SampleApp(tk.Tk):
def __init__(self):
tk.Tk.__init__(self)
self._frame = None
self.switch_frame(Register)
def switch_frame(self, frame_class):
"""Destroys current frame and replaces it with a new one."""
new_frame = frame_class(self)
if self._frame is not None:
self._frame.destroy()
self._frame = new_frame
self.geometry('925x600 ' self.screen() ' 20')
self._frame.pack()
def screen(self):
screen_width = self.winfo_screenwidth()
posX = (screen_width //2) - (925//2)
return str(posX)
class Register(tk.Frame):
def __init__(self, master):
tk.Frame.__init__(self, master)
tk.Label(self, text="This is the register Page").pack(side="top", fill="x", pady=10)
tk.Button(self, text="Login",
command=lambda: master.switch_frame(Login)).pack()
class Login(tk.Frame):
def __init__(self, master):
tk.Frame.__init__(self, master)
tk.Label(self, text="Login Page").pack(side="top", fill="x", pady=10)
self.usuario = tk.Entry(self)
self.usuario.insert(-1, 'User')
self.usuario.config(foreground='gray')
self.usuario.pack(side="top", fill="x", padx=10, ipady=3)
self.password = tk.Entry(self)
self.password.insert(-1, "Password")
self.password.config(foreground='gray')
self.password.pack(side="top", fill="x", pady=10, padx=10, ipady=3)
tk.Button(self, text="Return to register",
command=lambda: master.switch_frame(Register)).pack()
tk.Button(self, text="Login",
command=lambda: print("not implemented yet")).pack()
if __name__ == "__main__":
app = SampleApp()
app.mainloop()
