All you need to do is canvas.create_t ext(x, y, text='Hello World')
where x and y are coordinates on the canvas. You can also add fg and/
or bg to set foreground and background colors, respectively.

I'm not sure what you mean. Do you want to type your text into a
textbox and as you type, you want it displayed on the canvas itself as
well? If that is the case, then yes, you'll need to bind an event. If
you just want to type text in a textbox that is on a canvas, the
textbox widget takes care of everything and binding an event is
unnecessary.

Here is some info on events:

Hope that points you in the right direction.

New to Tkinter. Initially, I had some code that was executing button commands at creation, rather than waiting for user action. Some research here gave me a solution, but I am not sure why the extra step is necessary. This causes the "graph" function to execute when the button is created: Button(root, text='OK', command=graph(canvas))) However, this waits until the button is pressed (the desired behavior): def doit(): graph(canvas)

Please take a look at and run the code snippet shown below. It creates a canvas with vertical & Horizontal scroll-bars. If you shrink the window to smaller than the area of the canvas, the scroll-bars work as advertised. That's great. However, if you click the Left Mouse button, it calls code which expands the width of the canvas by 100 pixels. The area being viewed expands correspondingly..... BUT I DON'T WANT IT TO!!

Below is a simple code snippet showing a Tkinter Window bearing a canvas and 2 connected scrollbars (Vertical & Horizontal). Works fine. When you shrink/resize the window the scrollbars adjust accordingly. However, what I really want to happen is that the area of the canvas that the scrollbars show (the Scrollregion) should expand as the window grows. It doesn't currently do this. although, if the window shrinks smaller than the...

mapq = PhotoImage(file = 'C:\Users\saftarn\Desktop\elmapovic.gif') w.create_image(10, 10, image = mapq, anchor = NW) after doing this is there any possibility of getting the characteristics of the GIF-picture(or bitmap if i use that)? it would be very helpfull if i for example could do something like canvas.getcolor(image, mouseclick.x,mouseclick.y) if u get the point. get the color of the image where i clicked.

Tkinter makes it very easy to drag jpeg images around on a canvas, but I would like to have a "target" change color when the cursor dragging an image passes over it. I seem to be blocked by the fact that the callbacks that might tell the target that the mouse has entered it (<Enter>, <Any-Enter>, even <Motion>) aren't called if the mouse's button is down. What am I missing? Have I failed to find the right Tkinter document? Is Tkinter...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
