How to make .configure(text=“lorem ipsum”) only display in a given amount of time (e.g. only shows for 5 seconds)?










0















Right now, for instance if I click the "copy" button for Username, the "Username copied!" will display there forever. I only want it to display for 5 seconds and the "Welcome" in the description = Label(window, text="Welcome") will show again.

window = Tk()
window.title("CopyText")
window.geometry('295x150+600+210')

large_font = ('Verdana',11)
small_font = ('Verdana',10)

#USERNAME ===================

lbl = Label(window, text="Username:")
lbl.grid(column=0, row=0)
