[Tkinter-discuss] configure command

[adil gourinda]

In your example, is "width" a positional argument or a positional-keyword argument (and if it is what is the parameter's name) ?

Thanks

actually that is quite straightforward, as a little toying around reveals:

First a simple example in Tcl:

$ wish
% panedwindow .pw
.pw
% pack .pw
% text .pw.t
.pw.t
% .pw add .pw.t
% .pw paneconfigure .pw.t -width
-width {} {} {} {}
%

Now the same in Python:

$ python
Python 2.7.13 (default, Nov 24 2017, 17:33:09)
[GCC 6.3.0 20170516] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from Tkinter import *
>>> root = Tk()
>>> pw = PanedWindow(root)
>>> pw.pack()
>>> t = Text(pw)
>>> pw.add(t)
>>> pw.paneconfigure(t, 'width')
('width', '', '', '', '')
>>>

So you see, the paneconfigure command works exactly the same in Python as
it does in Tcl.

Regards

Michael
