OK, figured that was probably bad etiquette, but there doesn't seem to
be close to the same traffic. Mea culpa. I won't do it again. I think
most of my issues have to do with the gtk part, so I'll post there for
the most part. Thanks.

OK, I just did the ugliest hack, from someone who only seems to do
ugly hacks. I set up a bunch of textview areas and defaulted them to
'not visible'. Then as I loop through my query results, I make them
visible one at a time. Well, it works perfect, but it just doesn't
seem right for some reason.
You also posted this on the PyGTK mailing list, which is the correct
place for these problems. Please post your PyGTK questions only there,
do not double post. I'll answer you there.
Cheers,

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remotely GUI related seems very outdated or just tkinter related,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.
