Python - Tkinter Toplevel

Toplevel widgets in Tkinter create new top-level windows that are directly managed by the window manager, unlike frames which must be placed inside a parent widget. Any number of Toplevel windows can be created. Toplevel widgets have options like background color, border width, and size that can be configured, as well as methods for controlling the window state like iconifying, withdrawing, or resizing the window.

Python - Tkinter Toplevel

Toplevel widgets work as windows that are directly managed by the window manager. They do
not necessarily have a parent widget on top of them.

Your application can use any number of top-level windows.

Syntax
Here is the simple syntax to create this widget −

w = Toplevel ( option, ... )

options − Here is the list of most commonly used options for this widget. These options
can be used as key-value pairs separated by commas.

The background color of the window.

2 bd

Border width in pixels; default is 0.

3 cursor
The cursor that appears when the mouse is in this window.
