Introduction

In this Page we are going to learn how can we add a Working quit button in tkinter main window also known as root window.
In other words we are going to demonstrate how to close a tkinter window.

About Tkinter
Tkinter gives us the way in through which we can build a GUI in Python.It can be said as Python interface to the Tk GUI toolkit,which comes with Python.Tkinter is the standard library in Python. When Python and Tkinter are combined then they provide a fast and easy way to create GUI applications. Tkinter provides a powerful object-oriented interface to the Tk GUI toolkit.

Basic steps to start your tkinter-python program are:-
  • Import Tkinter module.
  • Create main window of GUI generally known as Root window.
  • Add widgets you want.
  • Enter the main event loop using root.mainloop() to take action against each operation defined by you.
Widgets
Tkinter provides user to create different objects in their window which are known as Widgets.Example of such Widgets are; buttons, labels and text boxes used in a GUI application.

Button
The Button widget is used to add button in a Tkinter Window.These buttons can display text on them or images to convey its function to the user. You can give a command by defining a function and adding to the widget using the appropriate code. A button Widget can be customized in easy way by adjusting the size,borders,color,font,Relief structure.etc.

Relief style that we are going to use:-
Generally "raised" relief style is used for buttons,as it provides the exact 3-D effect for a button .In this project we have also used the same relief style.If you don't know about relief styles of widgets The following link may help you out.


NOTE:- IF YOU WANT TO COPY COMMAND FOR QUIT BUTTON THEN COPY ONLY THE #QUIT BUTTON PART! OTHERWISE IT WON'T WORK

#Labels


SPC1=Label(root,text="")

SPC1.grid(column=1,row=1)

Label1=Label(root,text=" USERNAME",

relief="ridge")

Label1.grid(column=1,row=2,padx=60)


SPC2=Label(root,text="")

SPC2.grid(column=1,row=3)

Label2=Label(root,text="Password",relief="ridge")

Label2.grid(column=1,row=4,padx=60)

#Entry WIDGETS
