image.thumbnail(width, height) not working - PCesarano - Apr-07-2021

Good afternoon. My code, and the errors it throws, seem very basic, but I am following all of the instructions to use the thumbnail function that I can find and I'm still getting errors. I've isolated the problematic line, starting with "smallerimage", in the code snippet below. Each image currimage is large ~(3000 x 4000 pixels). My window, however, is always fixed at 800x480. The idea is to take the larger image, and use thumbnail to resize it while keeping the original aspect ratio. However, I keep getting the (abbreviated) error "TypeError: 'int' object is not iterable". The full error, followed by the full code, and given after the code snippet. Thanks in advance.

Code snippet:

def GetNewImage():
    index = random.randint(0, 840)
    imgstring = "Images/" + str(file_list[index])
    currimage = Image.open(imgstring)

    smallerimage = currimage.thumbnail(800, 480)

    newimg = ImageTk.PhotoImage(smallerimage)
    image_layer.configure(image=newimg)
    image_layer.image = newimg
    image_layer.update()
    refresh()
    return newimg, currimage

I cannot get ImageTk to work correctly on my system so I can't be 100% certain, but I think that your problem is in line 50. The width and height should be a tuple like this:

smallerimage = currimage.thumbnail((800, 480))

Note the double sets of parenthesis.

That was it! Bravo! Thank you.
