Python/Tkinter: pack equivalent of grid_remove(), eg. pack_remove()?

Question

Is there a pack equivalent of the grid_remove() method where a widget's original pack() settings are restored on a re-pack()?

Use case: When I show a packed widget that has been hidden via pack_forget(), I would like to have the widget re-packed with its original pack settings when I issue the widget.pack() show request.

Answer 1

No, there is no equivalent. There is only pack_forget which doesn't remember where the widget was when you restore it. If I need this sort of feature I just use the grid geometry manager.

Answer 2

from tkinter import *

root = Tk()

b = Button(root, text="Delete me", command=lambda: b.grid_remove())
b.grid(row=0,column=0)

root.mainloop()

grid_remove works
