Python tkinter title font size
- Python Tkinter ‘Title’ does not allow to change the font size of the window. The solo purpose of ‘title’ is to provide a name or short description of the window.
- This is a frequently asked question so we went through the official documentation & various other websites to find if there is any possibility to do that.
- The official website provides no function to change the font size. Other websites are showing label as title.
- This error we received while experimenting with font on the title.
Python tkinter title bar color
- Title function offers one function that is to set a string on the top of the window. There is no official documentation to support the color implementation on the title bar.
- Since this is a frequently asked question so we performed various experiments to discover tip for the user but none worked..
- code on other website displays the placement & modification on widgets. They do no work on title bar that is on the top of the window.
- type
help(ws.title)
to read the official documentation. Here ws is the name of the window.

frame = LabelFrame(
ws,
text='PythonGuides',
bg='#f0f0f0',
font=(20)
)
frame.pack(expand=True, fill=BOTH)
Button(
frame,
text='Submit'
).pack()
ws.mainloop()
