How to open PIL Image in Tkinter on Canvas

Question

I can\'t seem to get my PIL Image to work on canvas. Code:

from Tkinter import*
import Image, ImageTk
root = Tk()
root.geometry(\'1000x1000\')
canvas = Canvas(ro         


        

Answer 1

Try creating a PIL Image first, then using that to create the PhotoImage.

from Tkinter import *
import Image, ImageTk
root = Tk()
root.geometry('1000x1000')
canvas = Canvas(root,width=999,height=999)
canvas.pack()
pilImage = Image.open("ball.gif")
image = ImageTk.PhotoImage(pilImage)
imagesprite = canvas.create_image(400,400,image=image)
root.mainloop()
