window = CTk() # creating a window using CustomTkintertitle_bar.hide(window) # hides full titlebar
# title_bar.unhide(window)
rainbow_title_bar.start(window, interval=5) # starts the rainbow titlebar
# rainbow_title_bar.stop(window) # stops the rainbow titlebarNote
interval is the time in milliseconds in which the color would change
rainbow_border.start(window, interval=4) # starts the rainbow border
# rainbow_border.stop(window) # stops the rainbow border
maximize_minimize_button.hide(window) # hides both maximize and minimize button
# maximize_minimize_button.unhide(window)
all_stuffs.hide(window) # hides close button
# all_stuffs.unhide(window)
Tip: to hide the text set the window title to ''
maximize_button.disable(window) # hides maximize button
# MaximizeButton.enable(window)
minimize_button.disable(window) # hides minimize button
# MinimizeButton.enable(window)
opacity.set(window, 0.5) # sets the window opacity to 50%
# opacity.set(window, 1) # resets the window opacity to 100%
window_flash.flash(window, 10, 100) # flashes the window 10 times with 100ms interval
# window_flash.stop(window) # stops the flashing immediatelyFlashing Interval starts from 10ms, default 1000ms
title_bar_color.set(window, '#ff00ff') # sets the titlebar color to magenta
# title_bar_color.reset(window) # resets the titlebar color to defaultNote
You can pass any valid color in Hex or RGB format
title_text_color.set(window, '#ff00ff') # sets the titlebar text color to magenta

# border_color.reset(window) # resets the border color to default
window_frame.center(window)window_frame.center_relative(window, child_window)
Example Usecase
window = CTk()
window.title("Primary Window")
child_window = CTkToplevel()
window_frame.center_relative(window, child_window)
window.bind("<Configure>", lambda event: window.center_relative(window, child_window))
window_frame.move(window, 100, 100) # moves the window to (100, 100)
window_frame.resize(window, 500, 500) # resizes the window to 500x500
window_frame.maximize(window) # maximizes the window
window_frame.minimize(window) # minimizes the window
window_frame.restore(window) # restores the windowwindow_animation.circle_motion(window, count=5, interval=5, radius=30)
# moves the window in a circular motion 5 times with 5ms interval and 30px radius
The animation might appear a bit fasterer and rougher in the above preview gif than it is
window_animation.vertical_shake(window, count=5, interval=5, amplitude=20)
# shakes the window vertically 5 times with 5ms interval and 10px distancewindow_animation.horizontal_shake(window, count=5, interval=5, amplitude=20)
# shakes the window horizontally 5 times with 5ms interval and 10px distancetitle_text.stylize(window, style=1)Below is a gif demonstrating all of the available styles
print(stylize_text("Your Custom Text", style=1)) # stylizes your text
# all of the styles shown on the above gif are available
