Hi I am trying to write a python script to run on windows xp that will have a full screen gui.
The script has a function that creates a full screen (hides task bar) top level window using tkinter. If I close the window and call the function a 2nd time the resulting window is full screen, but does not hide the task bar this time. I have included code below. Any suggestions as to how i can fix this? I am open to suggestions about other python gui cheers David from Tkinter import * import time #create invisible root window root = Tk() root.withdraw() def closewindow(): top.destroy() time.sleep(4) create() def create(): global top top = Toplevel(root) top.overrideredirect(1) #hides max min buttons w, h = root.winfo_screenwidth(), root.winfo_screenheight() top.geometry("%dx%d+0+0" % (w, h)) app = Frame(top) app.grid() bttnhide = Button(app, text ="destroy window and create a new window in 4 seconds", command=closewindow) bttnhide.grid() bttnclose = Button(app, text ="exit application", command=root.destroy) bttnclose.grid() create() root.mainloop() -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
