I am trying to create a basic invoicing system. However i have encountered an issue as you can tell from my the title, is there any way to achieve this. I have been using a counter to determine if the window should open or not but i dont think it is right.
from tkinter import *
window = Tk()
count = 0
def openNewWindow():
global count
count = count 1
if count == 1:
newWindow = Toplevel(window)
newWindow.title("New Window")
newWindow.geometry("800x800")
newWindow.title('test ©') # Frame title
newWindow.iconbitmap('icon4.ico') # Frame logo
if 'normal' == newWindow.state():
count = 2
else:
count = 0
width = window.winfo_screenwidth()
height = window.winfo_screenheight()
window.geometry("%dx%d" % (width, height))
bg = PhotoImage(file="bsor.gif")
label_image = Label(window, image=bg)
label_image.place(x=0, y=0)
title_label = Label(window, text="Job Management System", bg="black", fg="white")
title_label.config(font=("Courier", 70))
title_label.place(x=65, y=3)
customer_database_button = Button(window, text="Customer Database", width="23", height="2",
font=('Courier', 13, 'bold'), command=openNewWindow)
customer_database_button.grid(row=3, column=0, pady=185, padx=(110, 0))
employee_database_button = Button(window, text="Employee Database", width="23", height="2",
font=('Courier', 13, 'bold'))
employee_database_button.grid(row=3, column=1, pady=10, padx=(50, 0))
job_category_button = Button(window, text="Job Category (Pricing)", width="23", height="2",
font=('Courier', 13, 'bold'))
job_category_button.grid(row=3, column=2, pady=10, padx=(50, 0))
quote_sale_button = Button(window, text="Quotes / Sales", width="23", height="2", font=
('Courier', 13, 'bold'))
quote_sale_button.grid(row=3, column=3, pady=10, padx=(50, 0))
cash_management_button = Button(window, text="Cash Management", width="23", height="2", font=
('Courier', 13, 'bold'))
cash_management_button.grid(row=3, column=4, pady=10, padx=(50, 0))
analysis_mode_button = Button(window, text="Analysis Mode", width="23", height="2", font=
('Courier', 13, 'bold'))
analysis_mode_button.grid(row=3, column=5, pady=10, padx=(50, 0))
window.title('test') # Frame title
window.iconbitmap('icon4.ico') # Frame logo
window.mainloop()

Here is a minimal example on how to do it (works best with only one additional allowed window):
from tkinter import Tk, Toplevel, Button
def open_window(button):
button.config(state='disabled')
top = Toplevel(root)
top.transient(root)
top.focus_set()
top.bind('<Destroy>', lambda _: btn.config(state='normal'))
root = Tk()
root.geometry('300x200')
btn = Button(root, text='Open new window!', command=lambda: open_window(btn))
btn.pack(expand=True)
root.mainloop()
Just have the function disable the button and bind a <Destroy>
event to the Toplevel
to set the button's state back to normal. (Also you may want to use .transient
on the Toplevel
to make it appear above its master so that people don't forget that they haven't closed the window and wonder why they can't press the button (it will also not display additional icon in the taskbar))
Also:
I strongly advise against using wildcard (*
) when importing something, You should either import what You need, e.g. from module import Class1, func_1, var_2
and so on or import the whole module: import module
then You can also use an alias: import module as md
or sth like that, the point is that don't import everything unless You actually know what You are doing; name clashes are the issue.
I strongly suggest following PEP 8 - Style Guide for Python Code. Function and variable names should be in snake_case
, class names in CapitalCase
. Don't have space around =
if it is used as a part of keyword argument (func(arg='value')
) but have space around =
if it is used for assigning a value (variable = 'some value'
). Have space around operators ( -/
etc.: value = x y
(except here value = x y
)). Have two blank lines around function and class declarations.

Thanks to Matiiss for the answer:
from tkinter import Tk, Toplevel, Button
def open_window(button):
button.config(state='disabled')
top = Toplevel(root)
top.transient(root)
top.focus_set()
top.bind('<Destroy>', lambda _: btn.config(state='normal'))
root = Tk()
root.geometry('300x200')
btn = Button(root, text='Open new window!', command=lambda: open_window(btn))
btn.pack(expand=True)
root.mainloop()
