Category: Tkinter Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Tim Wegener (twegener) Assigned to: Martin v. Löwis (loewis) Summary: Tix ComboBox entry is blank when not editable Initial Comment: When setting editable=False for Tix.ComboBox, when selecting an item from the combo box, the selected item should appear in the entry field. In Windows this does not happen, and the entry field is dark grey and blank. When editable=True the label is visible. Problem occurs in: Python 2.3.5 (Windows) Python 2.4.4 (Windows) (the above appear to use tk 8.4) Works fine in: Python 2.2.2 (Red Hat 9) Python 2.3.5 (Red Hat 9) Python 2.4.1 (Red Hat 9) Python 2.5 (Red Hat 9) (all of the above with tk 8.3.5, tix 8.1.4) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Matthias Kievernagel (mkiever) Date: 2007-01-19 19:55 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1477880 Originator: NO Or it might just be a problem with default colours. On my Linux box the selected item is hard to read. The shades of grey are very similar. Try changing the colours (disabledforeground/disabledbackground/readonlybackground). This is most probably no Python bug, as options are sent to the Tcl-Interpreter mostly without any change or magic.
