Window / Dialog Properties

Edit the active form's settings — title, size, snap behavior, description — without leaving the canvas.

Window Properties

Open

Right-click the empty canvas → Window/Dialog Properties (last entry, label flips between Window and Dialog depending on the form). The Properties panel switches to the document.

Properties

Group Properties
Window title, width, height, resizable, frameless, appearance_mode
Snap & Alignment snap_enabled, alignment_lines_enabled
Description Multiline note about the form

Snap & Alignment

Both toggles are per-document — each form keeps its own preference.

Toggle What it controls
Snap Magnetic stop when a widget edge nears another widget / margin during drag
Alignment lines Blue guide lines drawn while dragging to show shared edges

Disable either one if you need to place a widget at an exact pixel that the snap would round away from.

Description

A free-form note about the form. The exporter writes it as a comment above the generated class X(ctk.CTk): block — useful when feeding the exported file to an AI assistant that needs to know what the screen is for.

Local Variables group

A read-only group surfaces every Variables declared on the form. Right-click → Open Variables window… jumps to the right tab and selects the entry.
