I have a program that allows you to move an image if you click on the image than click on the square you want it to go. I have two frames, both with the same images but I want to restrict image movement to only the frames that they are currently in.
I have tried to do things like if self.squares[0, dict_rank_pieces or self.white_images] in self.squares[1, pos] but that doesn't work
