ntk will solve your problem when you can’t learn and implement, python tkinter to create desktop application in concern to good looking and os level implementation.

PanedWindow is widget wrapper for ntk window, it’s highly responsible, it can give us resizable box layout

ntk PanedWindow is extended version of tkinter base PanedWindow with more functionality and responsive grid system, to use this PanedWindow window we need to import first it from ntk by

from ntk import PanedWindow

and initialize it by calling it

paned_window = PanedWindow(root)

This will create window and basic style will be applied, you need to pass parameters described below to get your desired window size and style

available parameters are:

• bg="bg-light", # background color, default is bootstrap referenced light

• bd=2, # border width

• cursor="arrow", # cursor style for paned window

• handlepad=0, # panedwindow subwidgets handling bar, this also work as bar width
