This file will present you the best ones.

How to install

To install the package, you should use pip. Install the package with the following command: pip install MoreCustomTkinterWidgets

Widgets

Examples Patch Notes

SmoothFrame

This widget is a normal frame but with one upgrade: animations !

If you want to move the frame from one grid cell to another or one placing coordinates to another, you can use smooth_grid or smooth_place to move the frame to the given spot in a given time.

Inside the frame, you can still put other widgets

FileExplorer

This class is used to navigate and select files directly in the interface (not a TopLevel).

It also comes with a class to ask for a file in a TopLevel (FileDialog).

The FileDialog class comes with prebuilt functions to ask for files more easily: askdir, askfile

AnimatedImage

This class is used like CTkImage but allows to run an animation if an image sequence (FLI/FLC, GIF) was given.

You can start the animation, and it will run until you call the method to stop it, or you can run it for a given time.

DateSelector

These classes allow to easily create widgets to ask the user to select a date.

Separator

This widget is used just like the separator in classic tkinter: it allows to separate other widgets more clearly (draws a line to separate widgets).

BetterCTkImage

This class is used like CTkImage, but you can round the images corners !

You can configure the radius of corner rounding by using BetterCTkImage.configure() and the image will update automatically everywhere it is used.

Selector

This class is used to select values in a list.

You give a list of values to the widget, and it creates a scrollable frame containing multiple checkboxes. When you want to retrieve the entries, you just call the get_selections method.

Askdialog and Askvalue

Those two classes are TopLevels used to ask values (string / integer / float / boolean) to the user.

They come with functions to use them more easily: askstring, askinteger, askfloat, askyesno

Message

This class is used to display messages (TopLevel) to inform the user about errors / what is happening in the app.

It comes with prebuilt functions to use it more easily: showinfo, showwarning, showerror

These functions existed in normal tkinter but didn't go in customtkinter.
