Python Tkinter Tix: How to use ScrolledWindow with grid in Tix NoteBook
- by Sano98
Hi guys,
I'm adding several widgets to a Frame which is located in a tix.NoteBook. When there are too much widgets to fit in the window, I want to use a scrollbar, so I put tix.ScrolledWindow inside that Frame and add my widgets to this ScrolledWindow instead.
The problem is that when using the grid() geometry manager, the scrollbar appears, but it is not working (The drag bar occupies the whole scroll bar).
from Tkinter import *
import Tix
class Window:
def __init__(self, root):
self.labelList = []
self.notebook = Tix.NoteBook(root, ipadx=3, ipady=3)
self.notebook.add('sheet_1', label="Sheet 1", underline=0)
self.notebook.add('sheet_2', label="Sheet 2", underline=0)
self.notebook.add('sheet_3', label="Sheet 3", underline=0)
self.notebook.pack()
#self.notebook.grid(row=0, column=0)
tab1=self.notebook.sheet_1
tab2=self.notebook.sheet_2
tab3=self.notebook.sheet_3
self.myMainContainer = Frame(tab1)
self.myMainContainer.pack()
#self.myMainContainer.grid(row=0, column=0)
scrwin = Tix.ScrolledWindow(self.myMainContainer, scrollbar='y')
scrwin.pack()
#scrwin.grid(row=0, column=0)
self.win = scrwin.window
for i in range (100):
self.labelList.append((Label(self.win)))
self.labelList[-1].config(text= "Bla", relief = SUNKEN)
self.labelList[-1].grid(row=i, column=0, sticky=W+E)
root = Tix.Tk()
myWindow = Window(root)
root.mainloop()
Whenever I change at least one of the geometry managers from pack() to grid(), the problem occurs. (Actually, I'd prefer using grid() for all containers.)
When I don't use the NoteBook widget, the problem does not occur either. The other examples here all seem to rely on pack().
Any ideas?
Many thanks,
Sano
