In reading through one of the learning articles, I have a bit of code
that imports ttk, but I apparently don't have this installed. I've
looked up the svn checkout for python-tk, and have checked it out
(read-only), but still get the same error. I'm running 2.6.6 python, if
that helps.
Upgrade to the latest 2.7 or even 3.3 if at all possible.
Show the line of code that did not work and the traceback. What system
are you running on and what tcl/tk installation does it have? ttk is
included with any 8.5 installation. tile is often included with 8.4
installations and should be picked up as well.
The article I'm looking at is here -
http://www.zetcode.com/gui/tkinter/introduction/
The line is -
16 from ttk import Frame, Button, Style
$ python tkinter_tut1.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "tkinter_tut1.py", line 16, in <module>
from ttk import Frame, Button, Style
ImportError: No module named ttk
I'm running on Debian Squeeze, and do show both 8.4 and 8.5 of tcl
On my Windows 2.7 installation, directory /Lib contains directory
/lib-tk (which is added to the path). /lib-tk contains files Tkinter.py
and ttk.py, among others. If you have ttk.py, then I do not think you
should get that specific message; if there were a problem finding
tcl/tk, it should say something else. If you do not have that file, as
it seems, then your installation is incomplete. So check your
/Lib/lib-tk. If you do not know where it is
import sys
print(sys.path)
Portability note: In 3.x, /lib-tk was renamed /tkinter and removed from
the path. Tkinter.py was renamed __init__.py to make the renamed
/tkinter an importable package. So 'import Tkinter becomes 'import
tkinter', while 'import ttk', etcetera, is now 'import tkinter.ttk',
etcetera. 2to3 should make the fixes.
