Does anyone know how to keep a tkinter window always on top, despite
attempts to focus other windows? Here is my failed attempt. I've
tried both tkinter-only and win32-specific solutions. For this code,
the window does stay in front of the dos box it's launched from if I
try to focus the dos box, but that's the only one it stays in front
of. Thanks, Benjamin
#!/usr/bin/env python
from Tkinter import *
import win32ui, win32con, win32gui
root = None
reps = 0
def show():
# try everything to keep this window on top
root.lift()
root.focus_force()
hwnd = root.winfo_id()
pycwnd = win32ui.CreateWindowFromHandle(hwnd)
pycwnd.ShowWindow(win32con.SW_RESTORE)
pycwnd.ShowWindow(win32con.SW_SHOWNORMAL)
pycwnd.BringWindowToTop()
win32gui.SetFocus(hwnd)
win32gui.BringWindowToTop(hwnd)
def reshow():
global reps
reps += 1
print 'reshow(%d)' % (reps)
show()
if reps < 100:
root.after(100, reshow)
else:
root.destroy()
root = Tk()
root.config(width=400, height=400)
show()
root.after(100, reshow)
root.mainloop()
