Good evening all. I am writing a program using python 2.4, glade 2 and pygtk. It takes
input from the user using textentry boxes. The input should be a number. When the user keys the data in, it
automatically left justifies. The
function below, takes the input for four boxes and right justifies it by using
an ugly, string format. The boxes
are 45 characters big, so I use the len function to
fit them into the box. The code is
below. I am looking for a way to set the text entry up, so that
there is a decimal point in the box regardless of what the user does and I am
also looking for a way to keep the numbers right justified. Any suggestions or comments as always are greatly
appreciated. Regards, John. def
callback36(self,data,text37,text38,text39,text40,text41,text42,label): a =
text37.get_text() b =
text38.get_text() c =
text39.get_text() d =
text40.get_text() a= float(a) b= float(b) c=
float(c) d= float(d) try:
e = float(a + b + c + d)
g = e/a
e = "%0.2f" % e
g = "%0.2f" % g
g = str(g)
label.hide() e = "
%s" % e
a = "
%s" % a
b = "
%s" % b
c = "
%s" % c
d = "
%s" % d
g = "%s%%" % g
text42.set_text(str(g))
if len(e)>45:
x = len(e) - 45
x = x + 4
y = e[x:]
text41.set_text(str(y))
return
else:
text41.set_text(str(e))
return except:
label.show()
