Too early to create image at NewWindow

I want to display the image in a new window, but I get an error.

This is my error code

photo = PhotoImage(file='img/dog')

File "C:UsersHyojaeAnaconda3libtkinter__init__.py", line 3542, in __init__

Image.__init__(self, 'photo', name, cnf, master, **kw)

File "C:UsersHyojaeAnaconda3libtkinter__init__.py", line 3486, in __init__

raise RuntimeError('Too early to create image')

RuntimeError: Too early to create image

And this is my code sample.

I would appreciate your help.

from tkinter import *



def messageWindow():

    win = Tk()

    win.geometry('300x200')



    root.destroy()





    photo2 = PhotoImage(file="img/dog1.gif")

    label1 = Label(win, image=photo2)

    label1.grid(row=6)



    Button(win, text='OK', command=win.destroy).grid(row = 5, columnspan = 2)



    win.mainloop()



root = Tk()

photo = PhotoImage(file="img/dog2.gif")

label1 = Label(root, image=photo)

label1.pack()





Button(root, text='Bring up Message', command=messageWindow).pack()





root.mainloop()

Try moving the line root.destroy() before win = Tk() to avoid multiple instances of Tk() which may cause problems.

Or you can specify the Tk instance to be used when initiating the PhotoImage instance: photo2 = PhotoImage(file="img/dog1.gif", master=win).

You are getting such area because you call root.destroy before the image is loaded to the window.Also you can not use two TK instance you have to use Toplevel check the link to understand better.

Aside that to display image in toplevel you need to create reference for it so it will not be garbage collected Display image in Toplevel window
which i did this way label1.image = sub.

I also use image subsample to demonstrate how to resize image sub = photo2.subsample(5, 5) check this link to read about it

from tkinter import *



def messageWindow():

    win = Toplevel()

    win.geometry('300x200')



    root.withdraw() # THIS HIDE THE WINDOW





    photo2 = PhotoImage(file="img/dog1.gif")

    sub = photo2.subsample(5, 5)

    label1 = Label(win, image=sub)

    label1.image = sub

    label1.grid(row=6)



    Button(win, text='OK', command=win.destroy).grid(row = 5, columnspan = 2)







root = Tk()





photo = PhotoImage(file="img/dog1.gif")

sub1 = photo.subsample(3,3)

label1 = Label(root, image=sub1)

label1.pack()





B = Button(root, text='Bring up Message', command=messageWindow)

B.place(x=200, y=300)





root.mainloop()

you cant destroy the root window whilst toplevel is preserved because it is slave to the window to do that you have to use wihtdraw function.
