Hello, I wish to collect 4 files from a user. So I have decided to use tkFileDialog askopenfilename. My problem is that after a few file selections the root window is destroyed (the whole program just dissappears)
I have created a simple example and was able to reproduce the same thing with this. I've just started using tkinter so I have no idea what I may be doing wrong. If anyone has any ideas please let me know. If you run the following code, just click the Browse button, and select a file. Do this repeatedly and for me after the sixth or seventh time the window shuts down. BTW, I'm using python 2.4 on Windows XP. Thank you for any help. ################################################################################ from Tkinter import * import Pmw import tkFileDialog import os.path filepath = 'C:\\Documents and Settings\\admin\\Desktop\\' class App(Frame): def __init__(self,master): Frame.__init__(self, master, bg='gray') self.enttxt = StringVar() lbl = Label(self,text='File 1:') lbl.grid(row = 0,column = 0,sticky = W,padx = 5,pady = 5) self.e1 = Entry(self,textvariable = self.enttxt,width = 50) self.e1.grid(row = 0,column = 1,columnspan = 3,sticky = W,padx = 5,pady = 5) btn = Button(self,text='Browse ...',width = 12, command = self.browse) btn.grid(row = 0,column = 4,sticky=W,padx=5,pady=5) def browse(self): fileformats = [('Text File ','*.csv'), ('All Files ','*.*')] retval = tkFileDialog.askopenfilename(title='Choose File', initialdir=filepath, filetypes=fileformats, parent = self) if retval: self.enttxt.set(os.path.abspath(retval)) def main(): root = Tk() root.withdraw() root.title('test') root.configure(bg='gray') app = App(root) app.pack() root.update() root.deiconify() root.mainloop() if __name__ == '__main__': main() -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
