root.mainloop()How do I specify what frame the radionbuttons go into. I tried to specifying the self.radioframe frame that is defined in the the __init__ routine. But it’s not working. How do I specify what frame it’s in for radiobuttons. I’m attaching a screenshot and the radio buttons are supposed to be in the power blue frame. It seems that the radio bottons are outsider the powder blue frame.PS I tried posting with the screen shot but it isn't working
RE: Why is this not working? - Larz60+ - Apr-11-2019
There are a bunch of reasons:
- you were trying to run create radio buttons before you instantiated the radiobutton widget
- you referred to radiobutton sometimes as self.radiobutton, and other times without self thus two instances neither of
which existed.
- self.quit called itself and quickly filled the recursion stack
- also fixed code formatting

you must change all radioframe to self.radioframe and do
self.init_window() later#!/usr/bin/python3
