I am trying to make a simple data editor in Tkinter where each data element has a corresponding Entry widget. I have tried to use the FocusIn/FocusOut events to set a 'hasChanged' flag (if a record has not changed, the db doesn’t need updating). This seems to work fine except that when the user finishes and clicks a ‘done’ button or the close window button (in the root widget) no FocusOut event is triggered. I can trigger a FocusOut event if the ‘done’ button opens another window (i.e. a messagebox) that takes focus. Enter and Leave follow the mouse, but don’t trigger when the user tabs between fields.
Is there a better way to monitor 'hasChanged'? Also, how do I capture the root window close button? Thanks, Bill -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
