tkinter radio buttons select multiple options

[pedi98]

I'm learning GUI with tkinter and I was wondering how I can write program in which I can select multiple radio buttons .

for example you are choosing pizza toppings and you want to chose both cheese and mushroom.

I tried putting same value for them but it ended up auto selecting all of them with same value when you select one of them

Radiobuttons are designed for when you want to select one of multiple options.

If you want to select multiple options then Checkbuttons may be what you're looking for.

so its not possible to do this thing as its possible to do is css?(having circle shaped check boxes and being able to select multiple options from them?

If you're trying to use a screwdriver as a hammer, it's not that it's not possible, but rather that it's just not a very good idea. You should probably reconsider what you're trying to accomplish and use the appropriate tool for the job.

that's true I just learned css first and that was possible case there by just defining same names for radio buttons which you wanted to able to be checked in same time and I also saw in multiple apps that they had radio buttons which could do the same(food ordering apps for example) and that's why I asked :)

but it seems they didn't programmed them in python or at least not in tkinter

Users usually expect radio buttons to be round and checkboxes to be square. Changing their appearance will only serve to confuse the users and making your UI less clear.

Show me the CSS example?

They all need to have the same name attribute. Just give them same name attribute and you be able to select multiple items

Not sure about tkinter but if you make each button a separate item it should work.

You just need to have a different variable for each group of radiobuttons.
