Change color of button in Python – Tkinter

Prerequisite: Creating a button in tkinter, Python GUI – tkinter

In this article, we are going to write a Python script to change the color of the button in Tkinter. It can be done with two methods:

• Using bg properties.
• Using activebackground properties.

Example 1: using bg properties.

We can change the button background color with bg properties, The default color of the button is grey but here we are going to change.

Python3

# import tkinter module
from tkinter import *

# create a tkinter window
master = Tk()

# Open window having dimension 200x100
master.geometry('200x100')

# Create a Button
button = Button(master,
                text = 'Submit',
                bg='blue').pack()

master.mainloop()

Output:

Example 2: Using activebackground properties.

These properties will change the button background color while clicking the button.

Python3

# import tkinter module
from tkinter import *

# create a tkinter window
master = Tk()

# Open window having dimension 200x100
master.geometry('200x100')

# Create a Button
button = Button(master,
                text = 'Submit',
                bg='white',
                activebackground='blue').pack()

master.mainloop()

Output:
