I have a tkinter app program written and everything works without getting errors. I converted the tkinter .py to a .exe by using pyinstaller. This application should be able to access through remote computers (desktops or laptops). But the problem is when trying remote desktop, the app won't open.
I think it's because I used .place() to place the widgets and x , y values are not the same for each computer. But I am also having some plots which are clearing by a button press. For that, .get_tk_widget().place_forget() is much easier and works well. And I know that I cannot mix grid and place in the same program.
How can I make the program work with any computer after converting to a .exe? The following is a simplified example of a much longer code.
