How do you create a Button on a tkinter Canvas?

Question

I created a Frame and then a Canvas.
What I want to do next is to add a Button on the Canvas.
However, when I packed the Button I cannot see the Canvas!

I had the exact same problem. There isn't an official way that I know, but here's a way around it:

from Tkinter import *
root = Tk()
def clicked(event):
    print("pressed")
canvas1 = Canvas(root, relief = FLAT, background = "#D2D2D2")
canvas1.pack()
buttonBG = canvas1.create_rectangle(0, 0, 100, 30, fill="grey40", outline="grey60")
buttonTXT = canvas1.create_text(50, 15, text="click")
canvas1.tag_bind(buttonBG, "", clicked) ## when the square is clicked runs function "clicked".
canvas1.tag_bind(buttonTXT, "", clicked) ## same, but for the text.
root.mainloop()
