I wonder if you have any suggestions regarding how to place widgets in my
window.
Even though I try to arrange them as orderly as possible they get placed at
all different kind of places in the window.
I use the grid method and place them in the window by using row=something and
column=something.
It just doesn’t look good. It looks okay I suppose, but not as good as I want
it to look.

Those images might help you understand a little bit more about the grid layout.
So if I got it right. Inside the constructor (__init__) I should declare:
self.the_time=’’
Then, if I understood it right, I should also place the function call there?
self.update_time() as you refered to?
Your constructor should look something like this:
def __init__(self):
#Your call to super
self.the_time = ''
# your other code
self.update_time()
I don't know for sure that it will work, but I expect that it will.

Okay, to begin with, I hope I am replying correctly now.
I will work to get my code into the constructor instead of
having them in the global scope.
Thanks for the pictures, I have now manged to organize the
widgets in a much better way.
I wonder, how do I add a background picture to my GUI window?
So far, I thought I could make a label that is as large as the
entire window, and then add a picture to it. The other widgets
are supposed to be placed on top of the picture.
But I am lost on how to accomplish this. Can you point me in the
right direction to solve this?
