Im making a list of addresses that the user will select from, and the address text will be returned. I need to use Tkinter.Label because the Tkinter.Listbox will not allow for newlines.
The kicker is there is no .get()-like method in the Label class...
I know I can do something like:
v = StringVar()
Label(master, textvariable=v).pack()
v.set("New Text!")
...
print v.get()
However, I have a list of 5-20 address' keeping a seperate array of StringVar()'s will be difficult b/c I have no way of identifying the loc of the active label. I would like to just access the activated widget contents.
Is Tkinter.Label the right widget to be using?

Tkinter Label widgets are commonly used in applications to show text or images. You can change the label widget's text property, color, background, and foreground colors using different methods. You can update the text of the label widget using a button and a function if you need to tweak or change it dynamically.
An Entry widget in Tkinter is nothing but an input widget that accepts single-line user input in a text field. To return the data entered in an Entry widget, we have to use the get() method. It returns the data of the entry widget which further can be printed on the console.
To get the value out of a label you can use the cget method, which can be used to get the value of any of the configuration options.
For example:
l = tk.Label(text="hello, world") ... print("the label is", l.cget("text")) You can also treat the object as a dictionary, using the options as keys. Using the same example you can use l["text"].

label = Label(text = 'Hello, World!') print(label['text']) # output is: Hello, World! If you love us? You can donate to us via Paypal or buy me a coffee so we can maintain and grow! Thank you!
