I'm trying to create a Tkinter GUI and I get an attribute error when trying to put a gif image on the canvas.
canvas_1 = Canvas(width = 800, height = 450, bg = "blue").pack()
gif = PhotoImage(file = "C:\\Users\\Luke\\Desktop\\fb.gif")
canvas_1.create_image(0, 0, image = gif, anchor = NW)
This is the error I'm getting
canvas_1.create_image(0, 0, image = gif, anchor = NW)
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'create_image'
Thanks in advance.

In Tkinter
, the methods .pack
and .grid
return None
. They don't return the Widget
.
The fix is simple. Split it into 2 lines:
canvas_1 = Canvas(width = 800, height = 450, bg = "blue")
canvas_1.pack()
