This is my first python project so I understand that this problem may seem a bit stupid.
I am trying to create a Mandelbrot renderer. I am piecing code together from tutorials and code that I understand to make something.
So basically I have all the maths and the basic functions of the GUI for the renderer but I can't get the matplotlib graph to actually graph inside the tkinter GUI.
The matplolib display part is actually a function that needs mandelbrot_image(-0.8,-0.7,0,0.1,cmap='hot') to run. If that code is introduced, the Mandelbrot set is plotted, but in a different matplotlib window.
Here is all my code, I thank you in advance and once again I apologize.

mandelbrot_image()function is never called! It's quite ironic to have a Donate-Button in the code you have tinkered together from other code and asking a question about here. When answering the question, would I get part of the donations???
