I've created an overrideredirected
root window in tkinter but there seems to be a problem when I'm trying to drag the title_bar (that i created) from a specific place where I've put a label
from tkinter import Tk, Label, Button, Frame
basically these functions are for the window movement, nothing else
x_cor, y_cor = 0, 0
def start_move(event):
global x_cor, y_cor
x_cor = event.x
y_cor = event.y
def stop_move(_):
global x_cor, y_cor
x_cor = None
y_cor = None
def do_move(event):
global x_cor, y_cor
deltax = event.x - x_cor
deltay = event.y - y_cor
x = root.winfo_x() + deltax
y = root.winfo_y() + deltay
root.geometry(f"+{x}+{y}")
And here is the main program
root = Tk()
root.overrideredirect(1)
root.geometry('500x500')
title = Frame(root, bg='pink')
title.pack(fill='x')
label = Label(title, text='Title of my program',bg='black', fg='white', anchor='c')
label.place(x=200, y=0)
close = Button(title, text='X', fg='white', bg='red', command=root.destroy)
close.pack(side='right')
title.bind("<ButtonPress-1>", lambda events: start_move(events))
title.bind("<ButtonRelease-1>", lambda events: stop_move(events))
title.bind("<B1-Motion>", lambda events: do_move(events))
root.mainloop()
Title bar moves just fine when I'm holding the mouse button in any other place except the space where label
is located. Is there a way to fix this?
In other words can I somehow 'overcome' the label and drag the title bar from wherever I want?
Thanks in advance!
Solution is to bind whatever widget there is inside the title_bar with the move functions. In this case, like this:
