Reading Images With Python - Tkinter

Reading Images With Python - Tkinter

Last Updated : 20 Oct, 2021

There are numerous tools for designing GUI (Graphical User Interface) in Python such as

tkinter

,

wxPython

,

JPython

, etc where Tkinter is the standard Python GUI library, it provides a simple and efficient way to create GUI applications in Python.

Reading Images With Tkinter

In order to do various operations and manipulations on images, we require Python

Pillow

package. If the

Pillow

package is not present in the system then it can be installed using the below command.

Example 1:

The below program demonstrates how to read images with

tkinter

using

PIL

.

Python
# importing required packages
import tkinter
from PIL import ImageTk, Image
import os

# creating main window
root = tkinter.Tk()

# loading the image
img = ImageTk.PhotoImage(Image.open("gfg.jpeg"))

# reading the image
panel = tkinter.Label(root, image = img)

# setting the application
panel.pack(side = "bottom", fill = "both",
           expand = "yes")

# running the application
root.mainloop()
Output:

In the above program, an image is loaded using the

PhotoImage()

method and then it is read by using the

Label()

method.The

pack()

method arranges the main window and the

mainloop()

function is used to run the application in an infinite loop.

Example 2:

Let us look at another example where we arrange the image parameters along with application parameters.

Python
# importing required packages
import tkinter  
from PIL import ImageTk, Image  

# creating main window
root = tkinter.Tk()  

# arranging application parameters
canvas = tkinter.Canvas(root, width = 500, 
                        height = 250)  

canvas.pack()  

# loading the image
img = ImageTk.PhotoImage(Image.open("gfg.ppm"))  

# arranging image parameters 
# in the application
canvas.create_image(135, 20, anchor = NW,
                   image = img) 

# running the application
root.mainloop() 
Output:

In the above program, the application parameters are handled by using the

Canvas()

method and the image parameters are handled using

create_image()

method such that the image

gfg.ppm

is displayed in the main window having defined height and width.

Note:

The Canvas method create_image(x0,y0, options ...) is used to draw an image on a canvas. create_image doesn't accept an image directly. It uses an object which is created by the PhotoImage() method. The PhotoImage class can only read GIF and PGM/PPM images from files.
