I hope that I'm asking this in the right place. I don't have too much
trouble hacking together command line stuff, but the GUI part is a
struggle for me.
I created a UI in glade. It has a couple of Vboxes for information.
The final box is filled with a TextView. In my program, I'm connecting
to a database and pulling out a series of records. As it stands, I can
pull out all the records and view them in the TextView, but I would like
to be able to have each result be a separate TextView (which I then have
to figure out how to make clickable...)
Right now, this part looks like:
query = 'SELECT subject, chapter_module, credits, final_test_score,
notes FROM credits WHERE id=' + student[0][6]
cursor.execute(query)
credits = cursor.fetchall()
temp = ''
for credit in credits:
sub_buf = 15 - len(credit[0])
chap_buf = 15 - len(credit[1])
cred_buf = 5 - len(credit[2])
score_buf = 5 - len(credit[1])
temp = temp + credit[0] + " " * sub_buf + credit[1] + " " *
chap_buf + "Credits: " + credit[2] + " " * chap_buf + "Score: " +
credit[3] + "\n\nNOTES: " + credit[4] + "\n" + " " * 5 + "-" * 50 +
"\n\n"
# I would like to loop something here
# to have multiple text areas added
buff = self.builder.get_object('textview1').get_buffer()
buff.set_text(temp)
This works fine. It pulls the records out of the database, and then
cats the results together and throws it into my TextView. I'm happy
with the results so far, but I would like to be able to click on each
record if I see something that needs to be modified. As always, any
help is appreciated.
Also, can anyone recommend a good book for gtk + glade + python? I went
out and bought Learning Python, but book at B&N that were remotely GUI
related seems very outdated or just tkinter related, and just about all
the gtk+python examples and tutorials don't use glade. Thanks again.
