Still Stumped - Milfredo - Sep-02-2020
I have watched a couple of videos and still stumped. The calc_value variable get assigned a number and I print it out and it is fine. But when I try and put it in a dictionary in another function it doesn't show up. Anyway here's code.
# SET UP CALCULATOR SLIDER TO SET FACTOR WEIGHTS
def get_Caclulator():
calculator= Toplevel()
global Calculator_horizontal
global factornames
global calc_value
width_of_window = 300
height_of_window = 300
screen_width= calculator.winfo_screenwidth()
screen_height = calculator.winfo_screenheight()
x_coordinate = (screen_width/2) - (width_of_window/2)
y_coordinate = (screen_height/2) - (height_of_window/2)
calculator.geometry("%dx%d+%d+%d" % (width_of_window,height_of_window,x_coordinate,y_coordinate ))
calculator.iconbitmap("c:/guis/racehorse.ico")
Calculator_horizontal = Scale(calculator, from_= -50, to = 250, length = 200, resolution = 2,orient=HORIZONTAL)
Calculator_horizontal.place(x=50, y=60)
my_label= Label(calculator, text ="Set Factor Weight", fg= "#104CD6", font = ("sans_serif" , 16)).place(x=50, y=20)
calc_button = Button(calculator, text = "Save Weight",bg="#E2F07F", width = 15, command = set_calc_value)
calc_button.place(x=90, y=125)
def set_calc_value():
global calc_value
global factornames
global factor
global Factor_ypos
global calc_valu_pos
calc_valu_pos += 25
calc_value = Calculator_horizontal.get()
calc_value_label=Label(factor_build,text = calc_value, fg="black",font = ("sans_serif" , 14) ).place(x=1000,y=calc_valu_pos)
def set_drfvalue():
get_Caclulator()
global Factor_ypos
global calc_value
Factor_ypos += 25
a_factorname= Label( factor_build, text ="drf", fg= "black", font = ("sans_serif" , 16)).place(x=750, y= Factor_ypos)
factor_list['drf'] = calc_value
print(factor_list['drf'])
print(calc_value) I print calc_value in def set_calc_value(): to check it and it has a value. But when I get to the def set_drfvalue(): it doesn't show a value.Help please

This code isn't runnable directly, so it might be something happening in another part of your code.
I do see that your button command (which is run every time the button is pressed) appears to create and place a new Label. I think modifying an existing label would be better.
RE: Still Stumped - Milfredo - Sep-02-2020
Each time the button is clicked in the set_calc_value it puts an entry on the screen below the previous one. The label is modified I thought. Uses same label with a different value. And the button in get_calculator only gets clicked once and then the window is closed until another factor button is clicked which opens the calculator screen again.
The calc_value I am having trouble with only appears in these three functions. no where else in my code.
