Python Tool Windows

Question

TL.attributes('-toolwindow', True)

I'm making a GUI in Tkinter that uses a tool window, is there anyway to make this window show up in the task bar?

Answer 1

On most systems, you can temporarily remove the window from the screen by iconifying it. In Tk, whether or not a window is iconified is referred to as the window's state. The possible states for a window include "normal" and "iconic" (for an iconified window). There are some others too.

thestate = window.state()
window.state('normal')
window.iconify()
window.deiconify()
