Using tkinter in DrawBot

Hugo Jourdan

Hi,

I would like to ask users to select a folder and get his path. Here with my code, a window opens to choose the file but nothing happen after. Like if the script stop after the 3rd line.

from tkinter import Tk
from tkinter.filedialog import askdirectory
path = askdirectory(title='Select Folder') # shows dialog box and return the path
print(path)

No error message appears.
I put the complete tkinter module in the folder which contain the script.

never used tkinter... DrawBot itself is made with `vanilla a pythonic wrapper around pyobjc.

vanilla has all the dialogs you'll need!

import vanilla

result = vanilla.dialogs.getFileOrFolder()
print(result)

import vanilla
help(vanilla.dialogs)
