Hi all, I have been trying to select text in a Text widget programmatically. I have been trying the following minimal example: #================================= from Tkinter import *
def showgui(): win = Tk() area = Text(win, width = 50, height = 20) area.pack() new = """Lots of text here and here and here...""" area.insert("1.0", new) area.tag_add(SEL, "1.0", END) win.mainloop() if __name__ == "__main__": showgui() #================================== The area.tag_add(...) line should - from what I have read in Frederik's Intro to Tkinter guide - select all of the text in the text area. It doesn't however... Does anyone have any idea how to get this to work? Or tell me what I am doing wrong. Cheers, -- Ant... -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
