Tkinter Button call a different class function when right clicked

manpreet Best Answer 3 years ago

I'm trying to make a simple game (minesweeper) that requires a player to right click over spots with bombs, while left clicking to clear spots.

I am using buttons as the tiles that can be clicked on, calling one function, but I need a way to determine if a player clicked using the right click, which would call another function to show a flag.

You need to use the bind method of Button and bind a different function to each mouse button.

def left(event):
    print('clicked left')

def right(event):
    print('clicked right')


root = tkinter.Tk()

button = tkinter.Button(root, text='click me')
button.pack()
button.bind('', left)
button.bind('', right)

root.mainloop()
