Module thread is always available (at less on platforms where Tkinter is available), while Tix in my example is just intended to use the Meter widget (a progress bar). > # this will *sleep* one millisec before calling > # your doInitOne function and continue > # with the rest of the code during that sleep time > # in this case just the mainloop > root.after(1, doInitOne) > root.mainloop() hum, this has not exactly the same effect, after, after_cancel, etc. are for scheduling actions in the future, and when the action start, it will block the mainloop and user interaction (this is why you need to call explicitly the update method), so the gui will not respond anymore. Finally why do you differ the call of your function after the mainloop since it will block ? That's said, I remember now that there isn't anything in Tkinter (no events or callbacks) to get the 'mainloop started' hook, so you must start the thread before the mainloop, probably like this : class myApp(Toplevel) : def mainloop(self) : start_new_thread(initFunc, params) Toplevel.mainloop(self) -- _____________ Maric Michaud _____________ Aristote - www.aristote.info 3 place des tapis 69004 Lyon Tel: +33 426 880 097 -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
