Tkinter is a Python library that is used to create and develop functional GUI-based applications. Tkinter provides widgets that can be used for constructing the visual and functional representation of the application.
Let us suppose that we have defined some widgets in our application. If we want to get a widget's name in an event, then it can be achieved by using event.widget["text"] keywords inside a function. We can print the name by using it inside the print() function.
Example
# Import the required libraries from tkinter import * # Create an instance of tkinter frame or window win=Tk() # Set the size of the tkinter window win.geometry("700x300") # Define a function to delete the shape def on_click(): print (win.winfo_children()) # Create a canvas widget canvas=Canvas(win, width=500, height=300) canvas.pack() # Create a button to delete the button Button(win, text="Click", command=on_click).pack() win.mainloop()
Output
If we run the above code, it will display a window with a button.
If we click the button, the output will show the name of the widget on the screen.
[<tkinter.Canvas object .!canvas>, <tkinter.Button object .!button>]
