Create a Yes/No Message Box in Tkinter

A Yes/No Message Box can be particularly useful when you want the user to confirm a certain action. In Tkinter, this can be achieved using the askyesno function from the messagebox module.

Here's a step-by-step tutorial on how to create and use a Yes/No Message Box in Tkinter:

Creating a Yes/No Message Box in Tkinter

  1. Setting up the basic GUI with Tkinter:

    Start with setting up a basic window using tkinter.

    import tkinter as tk
from tkinter import messagebox

root = tk.Tk()
root.title("Yes/No MessageBox in Tkinter")
root.geometry("300x200")

  2. Defining a function to show the Yes/No Message Box:

    The messagebox.askyesno() function returns True if the user clicks "Yes" and False if they click "No".

    def show_yes_no_messagebox():
    result = messagebox.askyesno("Confirmation", "Do you want to proceed?")
    if result:
        print("User clicked Yes!")
    else:
        print("User clicked No!")

  3. Adding a button to display the Yes/No Message Box:

    btn = tk.Button(root, text="Show Yes/No MessageBox", command=show_yes_no_messagebox)
btn.pack(pady=50)

  4. Run the main loop:

    root.mainloop()

Combining the code snippets provided and running the script will yield a tkinter window with a single button. When you click the button, a Yes/No Message Box will appear, asking the user for confirmation. Depending on the user's choice, the script will print either "User clicked Yes!" or "User clicked No!" to the console.

This kind of confirmation dialog is very useful in scenarios where actions are irreversible or impactful, such as file deletions or sending a message.

  1. How to create a confirmation dialog in Tkinter:

    • Description: Create a confirmation dialog in Tkinter using the messagebox to prompt the user for a decision, typically 'Yes' or 'No'.
    • Code Example:
      import tkinter as tk
from tkinter import messagebox

def confirm_action():
    result = messagebox.askyesno("Confirmation", "Are you sure you want to proceed?")
    if result:
        print("Action confirmed!")
    else:
        print("Action canceled.")

root = tk.Tk()

# Create a confirmation dialog button
confirm_button = tk.Button(root, text="Confirm Action", command=confirm_action)
confirm_button.pack(pady=20)

root.mainloop()

  2. Yes/No prompt in Tkinter messagebox:

    • Description: Use the askyesno method in Tkinter's messagebox to display a Yes/No prompt.
    • Code Example:
      import tkinter as tk
from tkinter import messagebox

def show_yesno_prompt():
    result = messagebox.askyesno("Yes/No Prompt", "Do you want to proceed?")
    if result:
        print("User clicked Yes.")
    else:
        print("User clicked No.")

root = tk.Tk()

# Create Yes/No prompt button
yesno_button = tk.Button(root, text="Show Yes/No Prompt", command=show_yesno_prompt)
yesno_button.pack(pady=20)

root.mainloop()

  3. Customizing Yes/No options in Tkinter messagebox:

    • Description: Customize the Yes/No options in a Tkinter messagebox to suit specific needs.
    • Code Example:
      import tkinter as tk
from tkinter import messagebox

def custom_yesno_options():
    result = messagebox.askyesno("Custom Options", "Do you agree?", icon='info', default='no')
    if result:
        print("User agreed.")
    else:
        print("User disagreed.")

root = tk.Tk()

# Create custom Yes/No options button
custom_button = tk.Button(root, text="Custom Yes/No Options", command=custom_yesno_options)
custom_button.pack(pady=20)

root.mainloop()

  4. Creating a decision dialog with Tkinter:

    • Description: Use Tkinter to create a decision dialog with options like 'Yes', 'No', 'Cancel', etc.
    • Code Example:
      import tkinter as tk
from tkinter import messagebox

def decision_dialog():
    result = messagebox.askyesnocancel("Decision Dialog", "Do you want to save changes?")
    if result is None:
        print("User clicked Cancel.")
    elif result:
        print("User clicked Yes.")
    else:
        print("User clicked No.")

root = tk.Tk()

# Create decision dialog button
decision_button = tk.Button(root, text="Decision Dialog", command=decision_dialog)
decision_button.pack(pady=20)

root.mainloop()

  5. Tkinter messagebox with Yes and No buttons:

    • Description: Use the askquestion method in Tkinter's messagebox to display a dialog with 'Yes' and 'No' buttons.
    • Code Example:
      import tkinter as tk
from tkinter import messagebox

def show_yesno_question():
    result = messagebox.askquestion("Yes/No Question", "Do you want to proceed?")
    if result == 'yes':
        print("User clicked Yes.")
    elif result == 'no':
        print("User clicked No.")

root = tk.Tk()

# Create Yes/No question button
question_button = tk.Button(root, text="Show Yes/No Question", command=show_yesno_question)
question_button.pack(pady=20)

root.mainloop()

  6. Handling Yes/No responses in Tkinter:

    • Description: Handle 'Yes' and 'No' responses from the user in a Tkinter messagebox.
    • Code Example:
      import tkinter as tk
from tkinter import messagebox

def handle_yesno_response():
    result = messagebox.askyesno("Response Handling", "Is everything okay?")
    if result:
        print("User confirmed.")
    else:
        print("User denied.")

root = tk.Tk()

# Handle Yes/No responses button
response_button = tk.Button(root, text="Handle Yes/No Response", command=handle_yesno_response)
response_button.pack(pady=20)

root.mainloop()

  7. Custom icon for Yes/No messagebox in Tkinter:

    • Description: Add a custom icon to the Tkinter messagebox when displaying a Yes/No prompt.
    • Code Example:
      import tkinter as tk
from tkinter import messagebox

def custom_icon_yesno():
    result = messagebox.askyesno("Custom Icon", "Do you agree?", icon='question')
    if result:
        print("User agreed.")
    else:
        print("User disagreed.")

root = tk.Tk()

# Create custom icon Yes/No button
icon_button = tk.Button(root, text="Custom Icon Yes/No", command=custom_icon_yesno)
icon_button.pack(pady=20)

root.mainloop()

  8. Bind function to Yes/No messagebox in Tkinter:

    • Description: Bind a function to the 'Yes' or 'No' button click event in Tkinter messagebox.
    • Code Example:
      import tkinter as tk
from tkinter import messagebox

def on_yes_click():
    print("User clicked Yes.")

def on_no_click():

def bind_function_to_yesno():
    result = messagebox.askyesno("Bind Function", "Do you want to proceed?")
    if result:
        on_yes_click()
    else:
        on_no_click()

root = tk.Tk()

# Bind function to Yes/No buttons button
