Alternative close window without sys.exit()

Scripting Issues
1

Hi,

I need to close the window from Panda3d, without the sys.exit() command. This is because I run an tkinter window as a startup window for changing the game settings and selecting a level.

The tkinter window opens and from there the game is started. But with sys.exit fired from the game, the whole application is closed. How can I avoid this, so the tkinter window remains open after the game window has closed?

Thanks,
Stefan

You can close the window with base.closeWindow(base.win).

The window is closed and the tkinter is still open. But, there is another problem. The following is still running in the background, and the tkinter freezes:

Known pipe types:
glxGraphicsPipe
(all display modules loaded.)

I also tried both:
base.graphicsEngine.removeWindow(base.win)
base.graphicsEngine.removeAllWindows()

But, still the tkinter freezes up. :frowning:

Hmm, I don’t know.
