How to set the border color of certain Tkinter widgets?

Let us suppose we want to change the border color of a tkinter widget. We can configure the widget by passing the highlightcolor, highlightbackground property of the widget.

Example

In this example, we have created an Entry widget and a button that can be triggered to change the border color of the Entry Widget.

#Import the required libraries from tkinter import * #Create an instance of tkinter frame win= Tk() #Set the geometry of frame win.geometry("600x250") #Define a function to change the color of entry widget def change_color():    text.config(highlightthickness=2, highlightbackground="red") #Create a Entry widget for which we want to change the border color text= Entry(win, width= 50) text.pack() #Create a Button Widget button= Button(win, text= "Change", command=change_color) button.pack(pady=20) win.mainloop()

Output

Running the above code will display a window that contains a button which can be used to change the border color of the entry widget.

Now click on “Change” Button to change the border color of Widget.
