I am trying to use Tkinter to create a custom scrollable widget, similar to a list box but with 3 Entry fields per row. In the real application each Entry has a separate input validation routine.
I have placed a test case file in the bug I reported: http://bugs.python.org/issue10232 The most serious issue is the behavior on MS Windows. In my sample program the scroll bar slider has a problem. When slowly moved down it works for the first few rows but fails near the bottom of travel. Near the bottom it rapidly generates "moveto" commands that jump between rows 4 and 7, causing the display to flash until button 1 is released. This behavior does not occur on Linux -- there scrolling using the slider is smooth top to bottom. Terry Reedy confirmed this behavior still exists in Python 3 (I tested in 2.7 on Windows and 2.6.2 on Linux. He suggested I post here as there may be someone more familiar with Tkinter who could shed some light. Thanks in advance. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
