I'm working on a project and i would like to get the Value of an Entry created in a def (turned on by a button on Tkinter)
So I have my main tkinter menu, with a button which will call the def "panier". The def "panier" is creating the Entry "value" and another button to call a second def "calcul". The second def "calcul" will do things with the value of Entry... But then, in the def "calcul", when i'm trying to do value.get() it tells "NameError: name 'value' is not defined"
Here is the code, btw the Entry must be created by the def...
from tkinter import *
def panier():
value=Entry(test)
value.pack()
t2=Button(test,text="Validate",command=calcul)
t2.pack()
def calcul(value):
a=value.get()
#here will be the different calculations I'll do
test=Tk()
t1=Button(test,text="Button",command=panier)
t1.pack()
test.mainloop()
Appreciate every feedback :)
You can make the variable global like this:
from tkinter import *
def panier():
global value
value = Entry(test)
value.pack()
t2 = Button(test, text="Validate", command=calcul)
t2.pack()
def calcul():
a = value.get()
print(a)
#here will be the different calculations I'll do
test = Tk()
t1 = Button(test, text="Button", command=panier)
t1.pack()
test.mainloop()
The global value
line makes the variable global so you can use it anywhere in your program.
You can also pass in the variable as an argument like what @JacksonPro suggested
t2 = Button(test, text="Validate", command=lambda: calcul(value))
