I draw a rectangle on a Canvas:
canvas = Canvas(parent, cursor="cross")
rect = canvas.create_rectangle(20,20, 1, 1, fill="")
I only want to draw the border, leaving the interior transparent (that is why I set fill=""
as mentioned here).
My problem:
I want the rectangle to have a red border. How can I do that?
By default, the interior of a rectangle is empty, and you can also get this
behavior with fill=''
rather than just leaving it out.
If you want the rectangle outlined, just add a keyword argument named outline
to the create_rectangle()
call:
rect = canvas.create_rectangle(20,20, 1, 1, outline='red')
You can also control the width of the border by also adding a width=xxx
keyword argument to the call. The default width is 1 pixel.
