I've only ever dabbled with Tkinter, so I'm not sure what its syntax is. However, with wxPython, it's fairly trivial: <code> import wx class MyPopup(wx.Frame): def __init__(self): wx.Frame.__init__(self, None, wx.ID_ANY, 'Test Frame', #size=(450,295), style=wx.STAY_ON_TOP # forces the window to be on top / non-modal ##|wx.DEFAULT_FRAME_STYLE # enable this to get the min/max/close buttons ## |wx.CLOSE_BOX |wx.CAPTION |wx.RESIZE_BORDER) btn = wx.Button(self, wx.ID_ANY, 'Close') self.Bind(wx.EVT_BUTTON, self.close, btn) # display the frame self.Show() def close(self, event): self.Close(True) if __name__ == '__main__': app = wx.PySimpleApp() MyPopup() app.MainLoop() </code> I included a close button as it can be a pain to close these suckers when you disable the default buttons. I read in the last week or two that there's some Linux variant out there that will display the minimize button regardless. If all you want is a non-modal dialog, you might look at the wx.Dialog widget or one of the popup widgets. There's also a Toaster widget...
