Trying to get help with checkbuttons

[deanhystad]

The code works if I do this:

    global checkvalue1
    checkvalue1 = IntVar(window)
    if len(diceclicked1) != 0:
        Checkbutton(window, text=diceclicked1, variable=checkvalue1).grid(row=1,sticky=W)

I am not sure why the master widget argument is required, but your small example worked because there was only one window and something about having multiple windows messes this up.

May I offer a suggestion? The game would be easier to play if all five dice were always visible. You have a great way of selecting which dice you want to freeze, why not use that same mechanism for putting dice back into the cup. If I want to reroll a frozen die I click on it and the red freeze frame disappears.
