In this blog, I am going to create a message box in a Python GUI application. When a user clicks the info item from the message menu, it will display a message box on the application screen.
 
Software requirement
 
Python 3.5 and IDLE (Python 3.5)
 
Programming code
  1. #Create Message Box in Python GUI Application  
  2. import tkinter as tk  
  3. from tkinter import ttk  
  4. from tkinter import Menu  
  5. from tkinter import messagebox as mbox  
  6. app = tk.Tk()  
  7. #Add a Title  
  8. app.title("Python GUI App")  
  9. #Label  
  10. ttk.Label(app, text="Messsage Box Application").grid(column=0,row=0,padx=20,pady=30)  
  11. #Create a Menu Bar  
  12. menuBar=Menu(app)  
  13. app.config(menu=menuBar)  
  14. #Display a Message Box  
  15. def _msgBox():  
  16.    mbox.showinfo('Python Message Box','This Python GUI Application Using Message box.')  
  17.    #Create Message Menu  
  18.    infoMenu=Menu(menuBar, tearoff=0)  
  19.    infoMenu.add_command(label="Info", command=_msgBox)  
  20.    menuBar.add_cascade(label="Message", menu=infoMenu)  
  21.    #Calling Main()
