btw im tkinter newbie so this question could be stupid
is it alright to use Menu instead Toplevel or Tk
like this?
from Tkinter import *
from tkMessageBox import *
class MenuDemo(Menu):
def __init__(self, master=None):
Menu.__init__(self, master)
self.createWidgets()
self.master.title('Toolbars and Mennus')
self.master.iconname('tkpython')
def createWidgets(self):
self.makeMenuBar()
self.makeToolBar()
L = Label(self.master, text='Menu and Toolbar demo')
L.config(relief=SUNKEN, width=40, height=10, bg='white')
L.pack(expand=YES, fill=BOTH)
