Making a rectangle border around text in Textbox python tkinter

Question

I want to have a rectangle border around certain text that is added to the text box from the end and will be placed at the center.

For example:

Unfortunately, I can't find a way to do that, because I don't know how to place texts at the center of the line in the text box, and don't know how to surround a text with a rectangle.

Answer 1

You can wrap a Label with border between a space and newline with justify='center' in a Text widget.

Below is an example:

import tkinter as tk

root = tk.Tk()

textbox = tk.Text(root, width=30, height=10)
textbox.pack()

textbox.tag_config('center', justify='center')

def center_label(textbox, **kwargs):
    textbox.insert('end', ' ', 'center')
    lbl = tk.Label(textbox, bd=3, relief='solid', **kwargs)
    textbox.window_create('end', window=lbl)
    textbox.insert('end', '\n\n')

center_label(textbox, text='hello', width=10, font='Arial 12 bold')
center_label(textbox, text='............', width=20)

textbox.insert('end', '\nhello\n')

root.mainloop()

Result:
