hi
i am trying to display an image on a canvas in a gui made with Tkinter
widgets
class PhotoDisplay:
def __init__(self,parent):
self.mainframe = Frame(parent,background=grey)
.
#added a subframe to hold canvas and button
self.canvFrame=Frame(self.mainframe,...)
self.mycanvas=Canvas(self.canvFrame,...)
...
def okbuttonClick(self):
self.mycanvas.delete(ALL)
myimagename=...#get an imagefilename from somewhere..
self.showSelectedImage(myimagename)
def showSelectedImage(self,imageName):
myimg=ImageTk.PhotoImage(file=imageName)
imgtag=self.mycanvas.create_image(70,100,image=myimg)
self.mycanvas.update_idletasks()
when i click the button ,the image is displayed for a fraction of a
second on the canvas and disappears.I couldn't figure out why this is
happening.I am quite new to Tkinter and still going thru Fredrik
Lundh's intro to tkinter..can someone tell me if i am doing sthing
wrong here?
You have to keep a reference to these images you are creating,
otherwise as soon as those methods finishes they are gone.
thanks in advance
harry
