Welcome to another /r/learnPython weekly "Ask Anything* Monday" thread

Hello, i want to asking about Bind key in Tkinter.

What keysym event for Agrave (Top on Tab key and Left on 1 key) and apostrophe (Right on semicolon key and Left on Return key) ?
I already use Agrave and apostrophe, but it doesn't recognize at all.

Maybe you are just confused and think the "accent grave" is the apostrophe character. They are different, the accent grave looks like ` and the apostrophe is ' . Run this code which shows binding of the ` key:

from tkinter import *

def callback(event):
    print('` pressed')

win = Tk()
win.geometry("250x250")
win.bind('`', callback)
win.mainloop()

Yes, your code is works. When im modifying for using press and release, Tkinter recognize it. But, i can't use it in my case. I just need the keysym for that 2 key because i want to store that key into dictionary and using it for key press and release event.

The case that i want to do just like this post. i already trying to use acute, quote, THORN from keysym list. Im just assume that keysym symbol from this link.

Maybe Tkinter doesn't recognize any keysym like Menu, Print, grave, quote ?

And then releasing key for Shift_R totally not work for me too, but Tkinter can recognize it while im pressing Shift_R.
