I'm building a Tkinter application and it's almost complete except for some aesthetic tweaks. I managed to customize almost all elements except for this Menu widget. In the first image below, you can see font, bg arguments doesn't do anything, although the same arguments work in the sub-menu. (see the second image)
Here's the code snippet:
root = Tk(className=r" Movie and TV Shows Recommendation System") # creates a window in which we work our gui
root.geometry('960x720') # width x height
root.resizable(width=False, height=False) # restricts window size
# 'font', 'bg' arguments doesn't do anything here (see first image)
menu = Menu(root, font='Courier 12', bg='black')
# although it works here (see second image)
helpMenu = Menu(menu, tearoff=0, font='Courier 11', bg='yellow', activebackground='black', activeforeground='white')
menu.add_cascade(label='Menu', menu=helpMenu)
helpMenu.add_command(label='How it Works?', command=open_popup)
helpMenu.add_separator()
helpMenu.add_command(label='See project in GitHub...', command=lambda: webbrowser.open_new("someurl.com"))
helpMenu.add_separator()
helpMenu.add_command(label='Donate via PayPal...', command=lambda: webbrowser.open_new("https://someurl.com"))
helpMenu.add_separator()
helpMenu.add_command(label='Exit', command=root.destroy)
I also tried menu.config(bg='black'), didn't do the trick. If you know any other way to customize this, please let me know. Thanks!
