it seems like i can't open a frame in python

i want to open the menu_frame by clicking the login_button but the frame won't come up and there are no error messages showing up. its my first time and im so lost
ive tried to google how to fix this problem but from what ive read, it seems to me that there are no errors or any reason for this code to not function properly. please help :(

You didn't pack the menu_frame and the indentation of def btncmd() was wrong.
That is:
btn3 = Button(menu_frame, text = "Settings", bg="gray", width=15, height=1)
btn3.pack()
menu_frame.pack()
def btncmd():
print("게임이 종료되었습니다")

Show the label among the selections, depending on the radio-button clicked in TKinter?

I am having a problem with, only having a single label to show in an instance of clicking the radio button. I want to show that label depending with the radio-button I clicked, I tried reading about pack/grid_forget, but I think I still don't understand it pretty well, or I am just doing it really wrong in my code.

So I am new in Python, I've just recently understood the 4/5 core fundamentals in every prog-language.
And now I am trying to learn about GUI with python, with Tkinter. I think my code got a bit longer, for something so simple and small. You can lecture my anyway you want, I just want learn good practices, and work on bad habits I may be doing.

I figured out that I should make my widgets global, and just make an update function to display every time an instance of them is created.
I want to thank Tim Roberts for helping me.

Cannot resize the Tkinter buttons when using Sticky

I'm trying to adjust the buttons, but somehow even after changing the width, it won't change the size. This is my code:
if __name__ == '__main__':
# create application window
app = Tk()
# title
app.title("Music Players")
# geometry
app.geometry('500x300')
# background color
app.configure(bg='orange')
equation = StringVar()
window_1 = Label(app, textvariable=equation)
window_1.grid(columnspan=3, ipadx=100, ipady=10)
equation.set('music player')
window_2 = Entry(app, width=30)
window_2.grid(columnspan=5, ipadx=100, ipady=10)
# Create buttons and other accessories
button1 = Button(app, text='PLAY', fg='yellow', bg='purple',
command=lambda: press('PLAY'), height=2, width=1)
button1.grid(row=2, column=0, sticky="NSEW")
button2 = Button(app, text='STOP', fg='yellow', bg='purple',
command=lambda: press('STOP'), height=2, width=2)
button2.grid(row=2, column=1, sticky="NSEW")
button3 = Button(app, text='NEXT', fg='yellow', bg='purple',
command=lambda: press('NEXT'), height=2, width=2)
button3.grid(row=2, column=2, sticky="NSEW")
button4 = Button(app, text='PREVIOUS', fg='yellow', bg='purple',
command=lambda: press('PREVIOUS'), height=2, width=2)
button4.grid(row=2, column=3, sticky="NSEW")
I'm assuming it is because of sticky="NSEW", because when I remove it, the buttons change the size, but there is big spaces between the buttons and also, very spaced out, even though columns=0 and columns=1.
How can I change the size of buttons without getting rid of sticky? Or, without sticky, but having the buttons next to each other?
My expected output will be like this:
Thank you in advance!

Python tkinter, clearing an Entry widget from a class

This is the class I'm calling and the function from a different file
class CalcFunc:
def clearScreen(self):
self.log("CLEAR (CE)")
ent.delete(0, END)
This is the Entry Box
ent = Entry(root, textvariable=clc.getBtn, justify=RIGHT, font=10, relief=RIDGE, bd=2, width=15)
ent.grid(row=0, columnspan=3, pady=10)
This is the button I'm clicking to clear the Entry Box
buttonCC = Button(root, text="CLEAR (CE)", height=1, width=20, bg='orange', command=clc.clearScreen)
I'm not sure what the syntax is to be able to to clear an Entry widget from a class basically. That code worked when I had it in the same file but my project requires it to be in a separate file. It's a class project for a calculator and the "clear" button clears the Entry widget. I can post my entire code if that helps. Thank you.
----EDIT----
My Class
import time
class CalcFunc:
def log(self, val):
myFile = open(r".\log.dat", "a")
myFile.write("%s\n" % val)
myFile.close()

self.log(iVal)
currentTxt = self.getBtn.get()
updateEnt = self.getBtn.set(currentTxt + iVal)
def clearScreen(self):
self.log("CLEAR (CE)")
ent.delete(0, END)
def evaL(self):
self.log("=")
self.getBtn.set(str(eval(self.getBtn.get())))
self.log(self.getBtn.get())

Note that I didn't use a StringVar(), which doesn't appear to be necessary. If you need it, you can always pass it as an argument to __init__(), then store it on self.

Or, you could do it like this:

Python 2.7 Tkinter Grid Layout Manager not working as imagined

Dear StackOverflow community,
I am trying to get my head around programming with Python and I am having a hard time with the grid layout manager. I have been trying to find the answer myself and tried various options, but I just can't get my UI to look how I want it to.
I hope that you can help me. Unfortunately, I cannot post pictures because I am new here. But basically I wanted all the coloured buttons on the left hand side EVENLY spaced on top each other, in column 1. Then the Labels in column 2 and the text areas in column 3.
I also wanted to create a border at the bottom with the close button underneath, but this doesn't even show up at all.
Please could you give me some hints as to what I am doing wrong?

It sounds like you don't need to be using grid, since you aren't creating a grid. It sounds like you want each column to be evenly spaced vertically, which precludes a grid-like layout.
You're creating three columns, so I would start with packing a frame along the bottom for your quit button, and then three vertical frames, packed left-to-right, all in the main window.
Next, pack the color buttons in the left-most frame, top to bottom. With the right options they will be evenly spaced (though you could also use grid if you want).
Finally, use the exact same technique for the other two columns - pack everything top-to-bottom, having each one expand to fill the area they are allotted.

You should use at least a Frame to group all the left buttons and another one for the Exit button, as in the following code:
import Tkinter
from ttk import Frame, Button, Style
class KarateSyllabus(Frame):
"""A program that displays karate grading syllabi"""
#define the constructor
def __init__(self, parent):
Frame.__init__(self, parent)
self.parent = parent
self.initUI()
#define the GUI
def initUI(self):
#define the basic parameters of the window
self.parent.title("Karate Syllabus")
self.style = Style()
self.style.theme_use("default")
#self.parent.geometry("500x500")
self.parent.config(background = "black")
self.parent.wm_iconbitmap("favicon.ico")
self.grid(sticky=Tkinter.NSEW)

#create the buttons for the syllabus
