Hi,

I am having problems opening a Window from another Python window.

I am creating an Application with Python where the user is displayed a Main Menu where he can choose further options.

The problem I am facing is how to create a new Window when the user clicks on an option

Thank you,
Andrew Borg

We don't know your error and we haven't seen your code, all we know is you have a "problem". With this little information, how can anyone possibly help you?

Yes, more information is definately needed. If you could show code, tell us what OS you are trying to run this on, and what GUI toolkit you are using. It would also be helpful to know what you have already tried. With this info I'm sure someone on here can steer you in the right direction.

Hi Guys,

Below is the python code for the application I am creating.

Note that this is not fully Functional and there may be some discrepancies.

#!/usr/bin/python

from gi.repository import Gtk
import sqlite3

class AddCustomer(Gtk.Window):

	def __init__(self):
		Gtk.window.__init__(self, title="Add Customer")
		
		Table = Gtk.Table(5, 5, True)
		
		# Labels
		
		ShopLabel 		= 		Gtk.Label 	(label = "Shop Name")
		
		NameLabel 		= 		Gtk.Label	(label = "Customer Name")
		
		SurnameLabel 		= 		Gtk.Label	(label = "Customer Surname")
		
		NumberLabel		=		Gtk.Label	(label = "Contact Number")
		
		EmailLabel 		= 		Gtk.Label	(label = "Email Address")
		
		VatLabel 		= 		Gtk.Label 	(label = "Vat Number")
		
		#TextBoxes
		
		self.ShopNameText	=		Gtk.Entry()

		self.NameText		=		Gtk.Entry()
		
		self.SurnameText	=		Gtk.Entry()
		
		self.NumberText		=		Gtk.Entry()
		
		self.EmailText		=		Gtk.Entry()
		
		self.VatText		=		Gtk.Entry()
		
		#Buttons
		
		ResetButton 		= 		Gtk.Button(label = "Reset")
		ResetButton.connect	("clicked", self.ResetButton_Clicked)
		
		SubmitButton 		= 		Gtk.Button(label = "Submit")
		SubmitButton.connect	("clicked", self.SubmitButton_Clicked)
		
		#Table Placement
		
		Table.attach(ShopLabel, 0, 1, 0, 1, ypadding = 10)
		Table.attach(self.ShopNameText, 1, 2, 0, 1, ypadding = 10)
		
		Table.attach(NameLabel, 0, 1, 1, 2, ypadding = 10)
		Table.attach(self.NameText, 1, 2, 1, 2, ypadding = 10)
		
		Table.attach(SurnameLabel, 2, 3, 1, 2, ypadding = 10)
		Table.attach(self.SurnameText, 3, 4, 1, 2, ypadding = 10)
		
		Table.attach(NumberLabel, 0, 1, 2, 3, ypadding = 10)
		Table.attach(self.NumberText, 1, 2, 2, 3, ypadding = 10)
		
		Table.attach(EmailLabel, 2, 3, 2, 3, ypadding = 10)
		Table.attach(self.EmailText, 3, 4, 2, 3, ypadding = 10)
		
		Table.attach(VatLabel, 0, 1, 3, 4, ypadding = 10)
		Table.attach(self.VatText, 1, 2, 3, 4, ypadding = 10)
		
		Table.attach(ResetButton, 0, 1, 4, 5, ypadding = 10)
		Table.attach(SubmitButton, 2, 3, 4, 5, ypadding = 10)
		
		self.add(Table)
		
	def ResetButton_Clicked(self, widget):
		self.ShopNameText.set_text("")
		self.NameText.set_text("")
		self.SurnameText.set_text("")
		self.NumberText.set_text("")
		self.EmailText.set_text("")
		self.VatText.set_text("")
		
	def SubmitButton_Clicked(self, widget):
		Connection = sqlite3.connect('Test.DB')
		C = Connection.cursor()
		
		C.execute('''CREATE TABLE stocks (date text, trans text, symbol text, qty real, price real)''')
             
             	Connection.commit()
             	C.close()
		
Window = AddCustomer()
window.connect("delete-event", Gtk.main_quit)
window.show_all()
Gtk.main()

On this Form there is a button To Add a Customer, Although what it realy does is create a Table called Stocks, but I am just doing this to learn Python.

What I want is for Example when the Submit Button is Clicked, the Python application displays the Main Menu, which is located in another .py file

I am using Linux with the GTK Toolkit.

Thank You for your Help,

Andrew Borg

I need to spend some time looking at this code, I won't be able to tonight. However, you should look at PEP 8: Style Guide for Python, particularly, whitespace in expression statements.
