Adding dummy variable solves the issue. Following Christian's
suggestion I added code to print Tk variable:
from functools import partial
import tkinter
class GUI(tkinter.Tk):
def __init__(self):
tkinter.Tk.__init__(self)
frame = tkinter.Frame(self)
for tag in ('A', 'B'):
w = tkinter.Checkbutton(frame, text=tag, #
variable=tkinter.IntVar(),
command=partial(print, tag))
w.pack(side='top', padx=10, pady=10)
print(tag, self.call(w, 'configure', '-variable'))
print(w)
frame.pack(side='top')
frame = tkinter.Frame(self)
for tag in ('C', 'D'):
w = tkinter.Checkbutton(frame, text=tag, #
variable=tkinter.IntVar(),
command=partial(print, tag))
w.pack(side='top', padx=10, pady=10)
print(tag, self.call(w, 'configure', '-variable'))
print(w)
frame.pack(side='top')
gui = GUI()
gui.mainloop()
The output is:
(venv-3.6.0) dilbert@gtrojan> python foo.py
A ('-variable', 'variable', 'Variable', '', <parsedVarName object:
'!checkbutton'>)
.!frame.!checkbutton
B ('-variable', 'variable', 'Variable', '', <parsedVarName object:
'!checkbutton2'>)
.!frame.!checkbutton2
C ('-variable', 'variable', 'Variable', '', <parsedVarName object:
'!checkbutton'>)
.!frame2.!checkbutton
D ('-variable', 'variable', 'Variable', '', <parsedVarName object:
'!checkbutton2'>)
.!frame2.!checkbutton2
It looks like the default name is the last component of widget tree.
When the # sign is removed, the names are unique and the problem disappears:
(venv-3.6.0) dilbert@gtrojan> python foo.py
A ('-variable', 'variable', 'Variable', '', <parsedVarName object: 'PY_VAR0'>)
.!frame.!checkbutton
B ('-variable', 'variable', 'Variable', '', <parsedVarName object: 'PY_VAR1'>)
.!frame.!checkbutton2
C ('-variable', 'variable', 'Variable', '', <parsedVarName object: 'PY_VAR2'>)
.!frame2.!checkbutton
D ('-variable', 'variable', 'Variable', '', <parsedVarName object: 'PY_VAR3'>)
.!frame2.!checkbutton2
