Sorry, I said stupid things in my previous message...
There is a better way to use popups.
- Suppose the widget with the context menu is a toplevel (but it can be a
frame, or a button, etc.)
- Open the command console
- Type:
menu .top53.rMouse
(supposing that .top53 is the toplevel with the ButtonRelease-3 binding).
- Then type:
vTcl:widget:register_widget .top53.rMouse
- Refresh the widget tree, you should now see the menu item, and you can
edit it from the attributes editor
- In your binding, just add:
tk_popup %W.rmouse %X %Y
- Save your project. The menu is now part of your project.
