root.after(1000, update_value, var, root) 

This code gets called once, and only once when you start the application (after 1 sec)

To make this a recurring event, you can use something like: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1657...ding-timer

hello, thanks for your reply.

I am a little confused. you said

root.after(1000, update_value, var, root) 

,"This code gets called once, and only once when you start the application (after 1 sec)." I was under the impression that update_value is in a loop that is called every 1 sec. Thanks.
