New submission from Chris Eykamp <ch...@eykamp.com>:
Attached is a slightly modifed example of the code sample in Bryan Oakley's response to: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/30337351/how-can-i-ensure-my-ttk-entrys-invalid-state-isnt-cleared-when-it-loses-focus I have modified it by changing the style.map to change the widget's foreground color (rather than background), and by adding a button below the text input. Typing a string containing "invalid" into the textbox causes it to fail validation (its state is shown in the bottom label, updated every second). As expected, the foreground changes to red. However, if I use [tab] to toggle between the elements, the foreground of the text entry gets changed to black, even if the item is invalid. Adding style.map("TEntry", selectforeground=[('invalid', "green")]) creates a new set of weirdness, where the invalid text becomes green when tabbing through the widgets. I'm running on Windows 10, Python 3.83. ---------- components: Tkinter files: simple.py messages: 406242 nosy: watusimoto priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Using tab to cycle through tkinter widgets breaks foreground styling versions: Python 3.8 Added file: https://bugs.python.org/file50437/simple.py _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue45796> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
