I knew you were gonna ask that! :-) I haven't worked in this area before, but I found this at http://effbot.org/tkinterbook/button.htm: In earlier versions of Tkinter, the image option overrides the text option. If you specify both, only the image is displayed. In later versions, you can use the compound option to change this behavior. To display text on top of an image, set compound to CENTER: b = Button(master, text="Click me", image=pattern, compound=CENTER) So here's a reworking, in which the text and image are both toggled by pressing the button: ### button that toggles both text and image from Tkinter import * def pushed(): """callback: button push""" global toggle if toggle: btn.config(text="", image=img_empty) toggle = not toggle else: btn.config(text=msg, image=img_good) toggle = not toggle ### main program toggle = True msg = "hello" root = Tk() ### store two versions of an image in global variables: # 1. original image img_good = PhotoImage(file="bacon.gif") # 2. blank image, created by copying and erasing img_empty = img_good.copy() img_empty.blank() ### create toggle button btn = Button(root, compound=CENTER, text="hello", font="helvetica 14 bold", image=img_good, command=pushed) btn.pack() ### go root.mainloop() E-mail message checked by Spyware Doctor (6.0.0.386) Database version: 5.11780 http://www.pctools.com/en/spyware-doctor-antivirus/ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
