frames in toplevel Tkinter

Probably a stupid question, but can you have a frames in a toplevel widget? Anything I try to put in a frame goes back to the main or root widget and not the toplevel or pop-up widget. Thanks for the help! Jonathan -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: ScrolledText get xy index of rowheader component?

Nevermind I figured it out... I set self.dummyvar = self.scrolledtext.component('rowheader') and then did something like so self.dummyvar.index("@%d,%d" % (event.x,event.y)) not sure why it worked like that...but it did :-) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

re.sub do not replace portion of match

Tkinter -- the best way to make a realtime loop

What's the best way to make a realtime loop in Tkinter? I know in perl you can use "repeat" and it will call a function every x seconds, in python it seems like "after" may be the equivalent though it doesn't seem to behave like the perl repeat function. Any ideas? Thanks, Jonathan -- http://mai

Re: Tkinter -- the best way to make a realtime loop

Thank you both for your replies. I had something similar to this: def incr(): var.set(1 + var.get()) root.after(1000, incr) except I had an extra set of parenthesis... def incr(): var.set(1 + var.get()) root.after(1000, incr()) on the function which was screwing it up. Also needed to ha

Re: passing menu label to function

Thanks Peter, I figured out an alternative just as you posted your response, I just looped through the buttons I wanted to add and used the loop variable to label the item and then passed it to the function, though your way seems much more robust. Thanks a lot! -- http://mail.python.org/mailman
