Tkinter: Color Chooser on MacOS

Question:

The Python Tkinter color chooser does not work in Python Version 3.8.5 on Mac.
Whenever I type in colorchooser.askcolor(), It always outputs Traceback (most recent call last): File "<pyshell#5>", line 1, in <module> colorchooser.askcolor() NameError: name 'colorchooser' is not defined.
I did this all in the shell and I didn’t forget to add from tkinter import *. Could you please help me?

Answers:

Some modules reqiure you to do from tkinter import x, and do not get imported with from tkinter import *. Add from tkinter import colorchooser into your code.

import as:

from tkinter.colorchooser import askcolor

and you can direct use,

askcolor(color=None, **options)
