I am just trying to make a button that clears all of the dice roller outputs.

One way is to use textvariables in your label's the main methods are set and get.
I would make a list of the dice and set them all to ''. here's an example with the 4d only

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27

from tkinter import * from random import randint    def rollD4():     number= str(randint(1,4))     dice_1.set(number) def on_clear():     dice_1.set('')         root = Tk() root.title("Table Top Pal (beta)") root.geometry("500x592")  # This is how to resize your root box. (width x height) menubar = Menu(root) root.config(menu=menubar)    fileMenu = Menu(menubar,tearoff=0) menubar.add_cascade(label="File",menu=fileMenu) fileMenu.add_command(label="Exit",command=root.destroy) dice_1= StringVar() button1 = Button(root, text="D4", command=rollD4, width=10, height=3) button1.grid(row=0, column=0) clear_btn= Button(root, text='Clear All', command= on_clear) clear_btn.grid(row=2,column=0)   label_1 = Label(root, textvariable=dice_1, font=(None, 12), height=2, width=2).grid(row=0, column=2) root.mainloop()

Jesus Christ I wish I knew Python a lot better. That is a MUCH more efficient way of doing it.

[deanhystad]

I would write the program the same way using almost any language. You don't need to know everything about a language to write effective programs. Extensive knowledge of the language makes programming faster, but you can know everything about Python and still be a crappy Python programmer.

I know almost nothing about Tk. I used it for a job back in 95, but I barely remember anything about it. I am learning a bit about it by answering Tk questions in this forum. I've only been programming in Python for about a year, and mostly in my spare time. I would consider my Python skills to be pretty weak.

Control the text of the label via text variable and on the button click clear that text variable that's it.
