New submission from Jeffrey Goeders: I am experiencing a crash when calling focus_get() when a Tk Menu has focus. Here is sample code, just click the menu and it will crash.
import Tkinter as tk class App(tk.Tk): def __init__(self, *args, **kw): tk.Tk.__init__(self, *args, **kw) self.entry = tk.Entry(self) self.entry.grid(padx=20, pady=20) self.entry.focus_set() self.entry.bind("<FocusOut>", self.entry_focus_lost) self.menubar = tk.Menu(self) self["menu"] = self.menubar self.menufile = tk.Menu(self.menubar, tearoff=False) self.menubar.add_cascade(menu=self.menufile, label="File") def entry_focus_lost(self, event): widget_with_focus = self.focus_get() app = App() app.mainloop() Here is the error stack: Exception in Tkinter callback Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/lib-tk/Tkinter.py", line 1410, in __call__ return self.func(*args) File "/home/jgoeders/workspace/tester/test_menu_focus.py", line 19, in entry_focus_lost widget_with_focus = self.focus_get() File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/lib-tk/Tkinter.py", line 446, in focus_get return self._nametowidget(name) File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/lib-tk/Tkinter.py", line 1079, in nametowidget w = w.children[n] KeyError: '#140030874747536' ---------- components: Tkinter messages: 194693 nosy: jgoeders priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Tkinter focus_get on menu causes crash type: crash versions: Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18686> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
