In this article, we will learn how to create a python tkinter loading screen or splash screen. 

About this project 

This Python Tkinter Loading Screen or splash screen GUI was made using tkinter.ttk library. The loading screen includes a progress bar that displays a counting label in percentage. The progress bar moves along with the label counting in percentage unto it reaches a maximum of "100%" then opens another page as Homepage.

Creating A Window

Let's start by creating a window. It's really quite simple using Tkinter. Let's create a new python file called main.py.

python

from tkinter import *
root = Tk()
root.geometry('530x430')
root.mainloop()

output: ......

A blank empty window.

In the first line inside the code snippets, we imported all the functions for the Tkinter module. Using import *, will import all. In the second line we used " root " and assigned it to Tk() which is the standard name for initializing the Tk root widget. The root widget, which is the main window and our parent window, has to be created before any other windows. Also, there can be only one root. Then we gave our window a size using geometry with width: 900 and height: 600. Finally, the last line runs the main loop event . 

Now, after running our window you will noticed that the window is not aligned exactly at the center of the screen. So let's fix it.

python

from tkinter import *

root = Tk()

# Making window align to the center
height = 430
width = 530
x = (root.winfo_screenwidth()//2)-(width//2)
y = (root.winfo_screenheight()//2)-(height//2)
root.geometry('{}x{}+{}+{}'.format(width, height, x, y))

root.mainloop()
