Text over button image
|
|

| Can you place text over an image? the '-text' option lets you put text on a
button, but if you assign an image to the button, text no longer appears.
The image I add to the button is just a simple gif to give a little zest to
the button appearance. I specifically am wanting to use -textvariable so I
can consistenly change the text over the button. I seem out of luck if I
have to digitally place the text in the gif.
I've also tried working around this on the canvas widget. I create a button
(with image) on the canvas. I then try to 'createText' over the button
(x,y) coords, but the button still remains on top, even after trying to
raise it: $canvas -> raise($text_id);

Not sure if this is what you want but you can place the image using
"-compound =>".
