Hi,
I'm trying to replicate a non-blocking (or modeless) window behaviour
from a Windows .NET application using Tkinter.
The application I've got shows a new window in response to
some event (might be non-GUI event) and the execution continues
leaving the new window displayed.
Here is the relevant code:
private void foo(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Form1 f = new Form1();
f.Show(); // displays a window and continues
Console.WriteLine("Form created");
}
The important bit is call to the Show() method [1] of
.NET class System.Windows.Forms.Form.
The foo() function may be called from a non-GUI application,
as response to some signal or even invoked from a C++ application.
The point is there is no explicit waiting for events and the window is modeless.
How can I achieve similar behaviour in Tkinter?
How to avoid calling mainloop() or wait_window() methods, which both
are blocking?
