In this video we’ll look at Progress Bars in CustomTkinter.

Progress bars do just what they sound like…they allow you to visualize the progress of something…with a bar!

In this video I’ll show you how to use them with Custom Tkinter, and how to customize them to look all sorts of different ways!

Python Code: ctk_progressbar.py
(Github Code)

from tkinter import *
import customtkinter

customtkinter.set_appearance_mode("dark")  # Modes: system (default), light, dark
customtkinter.set_default_color_theme("dark-blue")  # Themes: blue (default), dark-blue, green

#root = Tk()
root = customtkinter.CTk()

root.title('Tkinter.com - Custom Tkinter ProgressBar!')
root.iconbitmap('images/codemy.ico')
root.geometry('700x350')

def clicker():
	my_progressbar.step()
	my_label.configure(text=(int(my_progressbar.get()*100)))

def start():
	my_progressbar.start()

def stop():
	my_progressbar.stop()


my_progressbar = customtkinter.CTkProgressBar(root, orientation="horizontal",
	width=300,
	height=50,
	corner_radius=20,
	border_width=2,
	border_color="red",
	fg_color="green",
	progress_color="pink",
	mode="determinate",
	determinate_speed=5,
	indeterminate_speed=.5,



	)
my_progressbar.pack(pady=40)

# Set the default progress starting point
my_progressbar.set(0)


my_button = customtkinter.CTkButton(root, text="Click Me", command=clicker)
my_button.pack(pady=10)

start_button = customtkinter.CTkButton(root, text="Start", command=start)
start_button.pack(pady=10)

stop_button = customtkinter.CTkButton(root, text="Stop", command=stop)
stop_button.pack(pady=10)

my_label = customtkinter.CTkLabel(root, text="", font=("Helvetica", 18))
my_label.pack(pady=10)


root.mainloop()
