Troubleshooting

These items may solve your problem. Please check those you've done by changing - [ ] to - [X]

  • Searched main docs for your problem www.PySimpleGUI.org
  • Looked for Demo Programs that are similar to your goal Demos.PySimpleGUI.org
  • If not tkinter - looked for Demo Programs for specific port
  • For non tkinter - Looked at readme for your specific port if not PySimpleGUI (Qt, WX, Remi)
  • Run your program outside of your debugger (from a command line)
  • Searched through Issues (open and closed) to see if already reported Issues.PySimpleGUI.org
  • Tried using the PySimpleGUI.py file on GitHub. Your problem may have already been fixed but not released

Detailed Description

The Output element has been phased out some time ago, but it is still in the Demo Programs.

Tasks for this enhancement:

  • More information about the phase out is needed
  • Remove all use of Output from Demos
  • Remove Output from the documentation except for backard compat
  • Change Cookbook to show the Multiline where the Output element is now
