tkinter checkbutton different image

问题:

I want a tkinter checkbutton that basically has my own images for on and off, so not the default checkbutton. I've searched the internet for a solution, but couldn't find anything. I'm thinking it might be possible with ttk styling, but i'm not sure how

tried changing the selectimage option in the checkbutton, which did absolutely nothing

edit: turning indicatoron to false, then changing image and selectimage works

You need to set the image option for the unselected state, and the selectimage option for the selected state. You also need to set indicatoron to False so that tkinter doesn't show the default indicator.

Here is a simple example:

import tkinter as tk
root = tk.Tk()

on_image = tk.PhotoImage(width=48, height=24)
off_image = tk.PhotoImage(width=48, height=24)
on_image.put(("green",), to=(0, 0, 23,23))
off_image.put(("red",), to=(24, 0, 47, 23))

var1 = tk.IntVar(value=1)
var2 = tk.IntVar(value=0)
cb1 = tk.Checkbutton(root, image=off_image, selectimage=on_image, indicatoron=False,
                     onvalue=1, offvalue=0, variable=var1)
cb2 = tk.Checkbutton(root, image=off_image, selectimage=on_image, indicatoron=False,
                     onvalue=1, offvalue=0, variable=var2)

cb1.pack(padx=20, pady=10)
cb2.pack(padx=20, pady=10)

root.mainloop()
