Try doing this through IDLE or another Python IDE. Tk's mainloop and ArcMap don't play well sometimes.

Thanks,eibenm ! I can create a UI through IDLE.En,what my problem means is that I can't create a UI when I click the button which I make through Python-AddIns.And the script of Python-AddIns is as follows.[ATTACH=CONFIG]33737[/ATTACH]

eibenm,I write a python module to create a UI,and,I call the module when click the button. When I first click the button in the ArcGlobe , I can get the UI and I can move it . When I click the button again , I can also get the UI but if I click the UI, the ArcGlobe Collapses.
The python module is as follows.[ATTACH=CONFIG]33738[/ATTACH] The code of my Python-Addins is as follows.[ATTACH=CONFIG]33739[/ATTACH]
Thanks!

ESRI does not support TKinter at all. You cannot use it with the ArcMap programs. It is a known limitation that ESRI will not fix.
