Hi All,
I am working on an image project, and I can display my image in main(). I mean,
I can load my image in my main(). Needless, it is awkward. I am trying to load
my image with a function, but got an empty image window popped up, no image
content loaded. Please take a look at code:
rom Tkinter import *
def load_img(win):
img = PhotoImage(file="xxx.gif")
Label(win, image=img).pack()
win = Tk()
load_img(win)
win.mainloop()
Somebody can help me out? Thanks!
I believe this the problem (However It's been long since I used Tkinter,
so be warned ... ):
The function load_img creates a local variable named img which goes out
of scope and is deleted immediately when the function returns. However,
Tkinter needs you to keep that image around as long as the Label uses
it. So, some solutions are:
keep_me = [] # Global for keeping references to images
def load_img(win):
img = PhotoImage(file="xxx.gif")
keep_me.append(img)
Label(win, image=img).pack()
or
def load_img(win):
img = PhotoImage(file="xxx.gif")
Label(win, image=img).pack()
return img
saved_img = load_img(win)
