Mick, you saved me!
My test code looks now like this (I hope HTML tags are honoured):
from Tkinter import *
r=Tk()
tx=Text(r,width=6) # hosts the frames and allows scrollbar
sb=Scrollbar(r,command=tx.yview)
tx['yscrollcommand']=sb.set
f=Frame(tx) # hosts my stuff
tx.window_create(END,window=f)
t
Mick, you're right, Tkinter frames are not scrollable. That's why I'm nesting
my frame into a Text widget... and am not getting anywhere :-(

Hi all,
I have a list of checkboxes and label/entry pairs which I'd like to have in a
scrollable widget.
So I built something like this (in this example I put just labels):
from Tkinter import *
r=Tk()
tx=Text(r) # hosts the frames and allows scrollbar
sb=Scrollbar(r,command=tx.yview)
tx['yscr
I suggest to have a look at tkZinc (www.tkzinc.org). It is a Canvas++, so to
speak, and I was able to make small maps of the "how to find us" kind. Some
street names were shown horizontally, some vertically; I understand you need
something similar.
Good luck,
SxN

Hi Guilherme,
First of all, *I thank you* for providing pyttk.

Hi Mick,
Thanks for your reply. It doesn't answer my question though, as your solution
is for "classic" Tkinter, while my inquiry is for themed tk.
What will be the approach in ttk?
Thanks again,

Hi All,
I installed recently tcl/tk 8.5.6, Python 2.6.2 and pyttk 0.3 on a Linux
(Gentoo) machine.
I would like to be able to change two things in entries:
- the font should be the default, but in italics
- selected text in an entry should have white background and gray foreground
How can I ac

Can I do these? How?

I dug over the weekend and found a solution to my problem. If anyone is
interested in such a thing,
here is an example of rotated text using BLT:

g=Pmw.Blt.Graph(r)
g.axis_configure('x',hide=1)

Does anyone know about a Tkinter extension to allow 90dgr rotated labels (or
other text widget)?

No, it doesn't :-(
I used the following test code:

After hitting "send" with John's answer I saw Matthias question. So here is my
next answer:
Yes, it is a daemon "a la carte". It forks, os.setsid, forks, redirects
sys.stdin and sys.stdout to /dev/null. The code resides in /etc/init.d and
dependencies are taken care of.
But I don't think this s
Mainloop is included. Basically, the daemon starts a thread that waits for
KDE, and does its
job in the main thread. The function that is started looks like this:
def inittk():
global rtk
while True:
sleep(60)
try:
rtk=Tk(screenName=':0.0')
except:
continue
break
Hi Michael,
While the two toplevel solution will work nicely, I'm not sure how would I

As for the other suggestion, that was my first approach, but it doesn't work. I
don't know why,
and sometime I'll have to find out, as I'l
Hi Michael,
I see your point, but this is not what I am looking for. What I'm trying to
achieve goes on the
following lines: the user has a GUI and works. A daemon (I'm on Linux) receives
a message
for the user, so it pops-up a little notification symbol (there is actualy a

Add in your functions, first statement after def
global CancelNow
This way everybody refers *the same* flag.
I would normally move your second-last statement (CancelNow = False) just below
imports.

Hi,
If I have:
from Tkinter import *
root=Tk()
tl=Toplevel()
root.mainloop()
and then close the root window, it will take tl with it. Is there a way to keep
tl alive after root dies?

> self.label.grid(row=5, column=2, column=0)
Why do you have "column" twice?
Grid will always compact your GUI: if you grid something on row 3, and rows
0..2 are
empty, everything is pushed up. If you add a widget at row 2, row three goes
down one
level to make room for row two. Similarly, for

Hi All,
1. I'd like to be able to put an icon on the titlebar. I read about using
iconwindow together
with a Label, but how? My code:
from Tkinter import *
import Image,ImageTk
root=Tk()
im=ImageTk.PhotoImage(Image.open("mcut16.png")) # a 16x16 image
lb=Label(root,image=im)
root.iconwindow(lb)
Thanks for everybody's advice, on both forums (tkinter-discuss & python-list).I end up using Fredrik's Lundh solution, since, in my project, multiple buttons are using the same callback, and their creation is controlled by the interaction with the user.Thanks again,Sorin
Hi All,Is it possible to have a widget id while it is created?Something like this:Button(root, text='...', command= lambda v=: fn(v)).grid()and then the function:def fn(v): v['bg']='BLUE' # or maybe nametowidget(v)['bg']='BLUE'Thanks,Sorin___
