Hello, thanks for the new hints/information Michael and Bryan. I don't know if your hints would work in my setup, though. Except bind_all, which should work, I guess.
My program structure: I have a Frame, which is nearly the complete toplevel window (only a title label and quit button outside; this is the Frame I originally tried to let capture all the keys). The left half is taken by a tix Tree and the right half contains one of a few editor classes (subclassed from Frame) which get exchanged based on the selected Tree node. One type of nodes opens a Canvas in the right half where I want the key shortcuts to work. The problem I see with both your hints (bind keys to all widgets, tag widgets and bind keys to tag) is I doubt they will work with tix Tree. I don't think tix Tree hands down any bind or tag to its subwidgets (or does it?). Thanks again, Matthias Kievernagel _______________________________________________ Tkinter-discuss mailing list Tkinter-discuss@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tkinter-discuss
