I never did that but this is python!
You can create anything you want at runtime!
Make a factory method in you gui class which inherit from Frame or
whatever container code below is testing:
>>> from Tkinter import *
>>> class gui(Frame):
... def __init__(self, master=None):
... Frame.__init__(self, master)
... self.pack()
... def createLabels(self):
... labels = []
... for i in range(4):
... labelName = "myLabel_{0}".format(i)
... labels.append(Label(master=self, text="this is label "
+ labelName))
... for label in labels:
... label.pack()
...
>>> a=gui()
>>> a.createLabels()
self is the instance of your inherited Frame or else container.

I just realized I had a typo in part of it.
The line that reads:

...should have said, "Or am I correct in guessing tat if it IS

Subject: [Tutor] tkinter, create widgets during runtime?

With Tcl/Tk, you can generate widgets "on the fly" during program
execution, without having to explicitly create them in your code.
i.e., something like:
for {set i 0} {$i <= 5} {incr i} {
label .myLabel_$i -text "this is label myLabel_$i"
pack .myLabel_$i
}
...which will generate five labels from "myLabel_0" to "myLabel_5".
Useful if you need a varying number of widgets, or a series of
"incremental" widgets.
Is there a way to do something like this in Tkinter? Or am I
correct in guessing that if it is not possible, it is probably
more complicated than the above?
