RuntimeError: main thread is not in main loop

This error occurs when a program tries to interact with a GUI element outside of the main event loop. The main event loop is responsible for handling all the user interactions with a GUI, such as clicking buttons, typing in text boxes, and so on.

To fix this error, you need to ensure that all GUI interactions are performed within the main event loop. This can be done by using the appropriate GUI framework's built-in methods or functions to create and manage GUI elements.

For example, in Tkinter, you can use the `mainloop()` method to start the main event loop, and then use the appropriate methods to create and handle GUI elements:

import tkinter as tk

root = tk.Tk()

# Create GUI elements here

root.mainloop()  # Start the main event loop

If you are using a different GUI framework, consult the documentation to find the appropriate methods and functions to use.
