Menu Buttons with TTKBootstrap – Tkinter TTKBootstrap 10

In this video we’ll look at MenuButtons in TTKBootstrap, Tkinter, and Python.

Menu buttons are nice drop down combo button type menus for TTKBootstrap.

I’ll show you how to create them in this video, and how to make them do things too!

Python Code: menu_button.py
(Github Code)

from tkinter import *
import ttkbootstrap as tb


root = tb.Window(themename="superhero")

#root = Tk()
root.title("TTK Bootstrap! Menu Button!")
root.iconbitmap('images/codemy.ico')
root.geometry('500x350')

def stuff(x):
	my_menu.config(bootstyle=x)
	my_label.config(text=f'You Selected {x}')


my_menu = tb.Menubutton(root, bootstyle="warning", text="Things!")
my_menu.pack(pady=50)

# Create basic menu
inside_menu = tb.Menu(my_menu)

# Add Items To Our Inside Menu
item_var = StringVar()
for x in ['primary', 'secondary', 'danger', 'info', 'outline primary', 'outline secondary', 'outline danger', 'outline info']:
	inside_menu.add_radiobutton(label=x, variable=item_var, command=lambda x=x: stuff(x))

# Associate the inside menu with the menubutton
my_menu['menu'] = inside_menu

# Create a label
my_label = tb.Label(root, text="")
my_label.pack(pady=40)


root.mainloop()
