from Tkinter import *
you have access to the constants in Tkconstants, since Tkinter imports it automatically.
Yes
However, in the shell if I do..
from Tkinter import *
print Tkinter.HORIZONTAL
I get an error..NameError: Tkinter is not defined
Sure, you ask for Tkinter.HORIZONTAL. But if you directly ask for HORIZONTAL it should work.
indeed your from statement imported the _content_ of the Tkinter module in the global namespace not the module in itself.
It's either: from Tkinter import * print HORIZONTAL
or: import Tkinter print Tkinter.HORIZONTAL
or even: import Tkinter from Tkinter import * print HORIZONTAL,Tkinter.HORIZONTAL
any ideas?
I usually only use: import OneModule
Or sometimes: from OneModule import OneClass, OneConstant
But I usually don't import a whole module in my global namespace.
I get what i expect. but according to the tutorial i should only need Tkinter.
