Customizing Tkinter Progress Bar Application Titles: A Step-by-Step Guide

If you've started developing a GUI application in Python using Tkinter and threading, you may have found the progress bar example a little challenging. One frequent question that crop up is, how do you set a custom title for your Tkinter application? Let's break down the solution to this problem and guide you on how to give your application the appropriate name, enhancing user experience and clarity.

Understanding the Problem

In many Tkinter applications, including those that utilize threading for progress bars, the default title of the window might not represent the functionality or purpose of the app. As a new Python developer, customizing the title can seem daunting, especially when trying to change it alongside multiple elements in your app. But fear not! Setting a title for your GUI is a simple task.

Setting a Title for Your Tkinter Application

Here’s how to elegantly set or change the title of your Tkinter application:

Step 1: Import Necessary Libraries

Ensure you have Tkinter imported, as that is the framework you'll be using to build your GUI.
