Thanks for the link Malcolm, I'll have a look at it. What is particularly interesting (at first glance), is that the author has "mixed" Tkinter with ttk as it suited i.e. look at this line:
f1 = tkinter.Frame(nb, background="red") If ttk was being used purely (from tkinter import *; from ttk import *) then the "background" keyword is nolonger available/recognised and the code would have to use ttk styles to change the colour - I find it somewhat disappointing that the author felt this approach was necessary as it tends to dilute the example by not keeping everything purely ttk - modifying the style to change the background of the Frame statements would have made it an even better example! I will repost the answer if I can work it out using this example code - thanks again! :-) Peter On Mar 18, 9:14 am, pyt...@bdurham.com wrote: > Peter, > > Sorry I can't be of much help, but I share the same interest as you. > > There may be some teaser info here although I can't claim to understand > the > technique.http://www.java2s.com/Open-Source/Python/3.1.2-Python/Demo/Demo/tkint... > > If you have any links/documentation to share, I would love to see what > you've found so far. > > Malcolm -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
