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

You can import multiple image formats, and resize with this code. "basewidth" sets the width of your image.

from Tkinter import *
import PIL
from PIL import ImageTk, Image

root=Tk()
image = Image.open("/path/to/your/image.jpg")
canvas=Canvas(root, height=200, width=200)
basewidth = 150
wpercent = (basewidth / float(image.size[0]))
hsize = int((float(image.size[1]) * float(wpercent)))
image = image.resize((basewidth, hsize), PIL.Image.ANTIALIAS)
photo = ImageTk.PhotoImage(image)
item4 = canvas.create_image(100, 80, image=photo)

canvas.pack(side = TOP, expand=True, fill=BOTH)
root.mainloop()
