In this Python TKinter article i want to show How To Embed Matplotlib In TKinter Window. for more TKinter articles check the below links.
What Is Matplotlib ?
Matplotlib is a Python 2D plotting library which produces publication quality figures in a variety of hardcopy formats and interactive environments across platforms. Matplotlib can be used in Python scripts, the Python and IPython shells, the Jupyter notebook, web application servers, and four graphical user interface toolkits.

from tkinter import * from matplotlib.figure import Figure from matplotlib.backends.backend_tkagg import FigureCanvasTkAgg, NavigationToolbar2TkAgg class Root(Tk): def __init__(self): super(Root, self).__init__() self.title("Python Tkinter Embeding Matplotlib") self.minsize(640, 400) self.wm_iconbitmap('icon.ico') self.matplotCanvas() def matplotCanvas(self): f = Figure(figsize=(5,5), dpi=100) a = f.add_subplot(111) a.plot([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8], [5, 6, 1, 3, 8, 9, 3, 5]) canvas = FigureCanvasTkAgg(f, self) canvas.show() canvas.get_tk_widget().pack(side=BOTTOM, fill=BOTH, expand=True) toolbar = NavigationToolbar2TkAgg(canvas, self) toolbar.update() canvas._tkcanvas.pack(side=TOP, fill=BOTH, expand=True) root = Root() root.mainloop() |
So at the top we have created our Root class that extends from TK, and we have added our window requirements like title, size and icon in the constructor of the class.

class Root(Tk): def __init__(self): super(Root, self).__init__() self.title("Python Tkinter Embeding Matplotlib") self.minsize(640, 400) self.wm_iconbitmap('icon.ico') self.matplotCanvas() |
After that we have created our def matplotCanvas() method. in this method we have created our Figure also we have created the values that we want to plot. the important point is this that you need to created the object of FigureCanvasTKAgg().

def matplotCanvas(self): f = Figure(figsize=(5,5), dpi=100) a = f.add_subplot(111) a.plot([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8], [5, 6, 1, 3, 8, 9, 3, 5]) canvas = FigureCanvasTkAgg(f, self) canvas.show() canvas.get_tk_widget().pack(side=BOTTOM, fill=BOTH, expand=True) toolbar = NavigationToolbar2TkAgg(canvas, self) toolbar.update() canvas._tkcanvas.pack(side=TOP, fill=BOTH, expand=True) |
This line of code is for creating NavigationToolbar for matplotlib window and we pass the object of canvas in that

toolbar = NavigationToolbar2TkAgg(canvas, self) |
Run the complete code and this will be the result
