[issue10232] Tkinter issues with Scrollbar and custom widget list
New submission from Robert Lerche : I have run across several issues (one serious one, showing up only on Windows) when implementing a scroll bar with a list of custom widgets. I suspect these may really be Tk issues but I thought I'd try posting here first. I sent this to the tkinter-discuss list and saw no replies. Please have a look and advise me on the right way to proceed. Thanks. -- components: Tkinter files: testcase.py messages: 119907 nosy: Robert.Lerche priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Tkinter issues with Scrollbar and custom widget list type: behavior versions: Python 2.7 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file19412/testcase.py ___ Python tracker <http://bugs.python.org/issue10232> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue10232] Tkinter issues with Scrollbar and custom widget list
Robert Lerche added the comment: Hi and thanks for the quick response. I'm happy to follow up with the Tk folks if it turns out that's where the problem lies -- it has been a long time since I wrote a Tcl script so before trying to reproduce the behavior that way I thought I'd try posting what I have so far. If you can just confirm that the behavior is reproducible that would be a good start. As I wrote, I have built everything from sources on Windows so there's always a chance I've done something wrong, although so much is working correctly that I don't expect that to be the case. I'm trying to introduce Python as a development tool at a consulting client (a large company) so I have to pursue stuff like this. Thanks again. -- ___ Python tracker <http://bugs.python.org/issue10232> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue10232] Tkinter issues with Scrollbar and custom widget list
Robert Lerche added the comment: Terry, I tried posting to python-list and all I got was "why are you doing that? Use Tix instead." Maybe it's good advice but it doesn't address the issue. And Tix is yet one more component I'd have to build (the Python distribution comes with Tix interface code but Tix itself is yet another .dll). I haven't decided how to proceed yet but if you have any suggestions please let me know.

Robert Lerche added the comment: Thank you, Hirokazu! I see now -- deleting the rows first causes the scroll bar to shrink. So I take it calling grid with a row/column that is already in the grid replaces the prior mapped widget.
