Subject: [Tkinter-discuss] Tkinter in interactive mode locks when run from
	subprocess
Message-ID: <AANLkTimEQa-PauvcGmNXZ2=fjipfapDomGj80bUUuvC+@mail.gmail.com>

Hi,

In Windows, I made an interactive window by C#, which creates a remote
python
subprocess  to do the interpreting. Communication is done via standard IO
redirection.
The idea is that the python session is an actual process separate from the
GUI,
which has some advantages, like I can have multiple such shells in my
application,
and I can kill them without worrying that my C# app will crash.


This all works really, I will also launch C# apps. So I was quite happy,
untill I tried
doing some plotting with Tkinter. The problem is that the process
becomes unresponsive when I do something(more details below)

I don't know much about creating subprocess and redirecting standard IO of
subprocess and how they are different from a normal process. So can anyone
offer some help as to what the problem might be?

Thanks in advance,
Kaster

To get to the details:
I use a textbox component of C# to receive the command and then run it as
a normal Python console
- When I start  with command "import Tkinter"
-work well,and then command "r = Tkinter.Tk()"
problem is arose, a small window pops up, and then whichever command I
run in the textbox is not working.

I think may be something block the input so that the command cannot transfer
to
the subprocess of python, but I don't know how to resolve the problem.

Yes Kevin, I know Snow come with Tk/Tcl 8.5, but for some reason if one install Python with the dmg installer from Python/Download installer, for some reason ttk doesn't use Tcl/Tk 8.5, but 8.4 instead.

To make Python use 8.5 one have to compile the source code, with the following lines:

$ ./configure --enable-universalsdk --enable-framework
$ make
$ make frameworkinstall

Maybe I'm missing something, but that's how is for me.

That's true if you use the Python.org installer. The Python installed 
with OSX links to 8.5.

Also true. That's basically how I built mine. Building from source isn't 
hard.

The Python distributed with OSX is 2.x. If you want to use Python 3.x and
install it from the python.org dmg, the same problem arises (the issue that
began
this thread). Apparently, all versions for OSX must be installed by
compiling
from source if Tk is to be used.

Also true.

Apple ships Tk 8.4 mainly for backwards compatibility, and the MacPython 
maintainers target this version for Tkinter to link to, also for 
backwards compatibility.

I believe ActiveState's Python distribution supports 8.5 on the Mac, by 
the way.

Yes, ActivePython 2.6 and 2.7 already does.

A new release of ActivePython 3.1 w/ Tcl/Tk 8.5, Mac 64-bit and PyPM is 
to be expected next week (we have an internal beta build if anyone wants 
to try it out).

Hello,
I am a total beginner with python and tkinter and I am having a hard
time getting my program working, I think the problem come from passing
variables.
I would like to have a menu that would with three main buttons, the
first one (LUT) let me chosse between two files, the second button (rrs)
opens a browser to choose a file and the third button would run a
program (or function) that makes some computation between the two files
open with button 1 and button 2, 
Here is what I have written

from Tkinter import *
from tkFileDialog   import askopenfilename
import numpy as np


class openfile():
    def __init__(self, yn):
        if yn == 0 : self.lut =
np.loadtxt("C:\python26\LUTnpdi_chile",dtype=np.float,skiprows=1)
        if yn == 1 : self.lut =
np.loadtxt("C:\python26\LUTnpdi_nwa",dtype=np.float,skiprows=1)
        if yn == 2 : filename =
askopenfilename(filetypes=[("allfiles","*"),("pythonfiles","*.py")])
        if yn == 2 : self.lut =
np.loadtxt(filename,dtype=np.float,skiprows=1)

Class rrs_file(self,rrs):
    filename =
askopenfilename(filetypes=[("allfiles","*"),("pythonfiles","*.py")])
    rrs = np.loadtxt(filename,dtype=np.float,skiprows=1)
    
def make_comp():
    result = self.lut[1,2] * rrs[1,2]
    print result
    
def callback():
    print "called the callback!"

root = Tk()

# create a menu
menu = Menu(root)
root.config(menu=menu)

filemenu = Menu(menu)
menu.add_cascade(label="LUT", menu=filemenu)
filemenu.add_command(label="East Pacific", command=lambda:openfile(0))
filemenu.add_command(label="NW Atlantic", command=lambda:openfile(1))


image_menu = Menu(menu)
menu.add_cascade(label="Rrs", command=rrs_file)

run_menu = Menu(menu)
menu.add_cascade(label="Run", command = make_comp)

quitmenu = Menu(menu)
menu.add_cascade(label="Quit", command=root.destroy)

#x = openfile(2)

mainloop()


I can not figure out how to pass get the lut and rrs parameters that I
have defined in the class objects?

I need help !!!

 Thank you very much in advance.

Hello,

I modified your code to make it work:

http://paste-it.net/public/m46ae5d/

Certainly, to be able to re-write the code, I made some assumptions and
guesses about your original intentions. Just check the code to see if it is
close to what you want.

Hi,

I'm a newbie in programming (2 weeks) and I use a windows vista 32 computer.
I've currently installed the phyton - 3.2.a2.msi file. Previciously I used
versions 2.7 and 3.0 and 3.1.2. But no one gets the tkinter module to start. All
the previous releases are uninstalled. However I don't know how to get around
this problem quickly. My goal is to go back to the last 3.1.2 version and get it
to work properly. I hope you have any suggestions that are not too difficult
without a lot of knowledge.

Hello,

Until Python's 3.0 version, the name of the Tkinter module was "Tkinter".
Therefore we used to import this module as:

>>> import Tkinter

Starting from Python 3.0, the name of this module is "tkinter". So you
should issue the following command to import the module:

>>> import tkinter

Normally, Tkinter module is part of the Windows Python installer. You do not
need to install anything special to make Tkinter work under Windows.

Just tell us what the output of this command in your system is:

>>> import sys
>>> sys.version

Subject: [Tkinter-discuss] Correct order for dialog display
Message-ID: <4CA43C93.4030103@cern.ch>

  Dear all,

In my application I have several custom made Toplevel windows when they 
close they remember their position and size, so the next time to open 
them using with the same geometry.

Therefore in the show method I have the following sequence

     def show(self):
         self.deiconify()
         self.geometry("%dx%d+%d+%d", self.width, self.height, self.x, 
self.y)
         self.wait_visibility()

In my linux Fedora-13, Ubuntu 10.04 etc.. works Ok.
However on Mac, Fedora-13 through a virtual machine (VirtualBox) or over 
the network the geometry card seems to be ignored.
The window appears to be where the window manager likes with size 
whatever Tk likes

If I change the order like
     self.wait_visibility()
     self.geometry("...")

then it works on all systems, BUT first it displays the window where the 
window manager likes with the standard size that Tk calculates AND THEN 
it move&resize to the correct position.

On fast machines is not a problem, but on slow machines or X11 over the 
network it becomes annoying.

So my question is:
     if I want to position and resize a Toplevel window (before it is 
shown), so when it is displayed to have the dimensions/position that I 
choose, what is the correct order of commands to use in order to work in 
all systems?

Thanks in advance
Vasilis

You might try to change your func like this:

def show(self):
    self.withdraw()
    self.geometry("%dx%d+%d+%d", self.width, self.height, self.x,self.y)
    self.update_idletasks()
    self.deiconify()

This way you should be able to avoid the ugly visible resizing, at least
I have used this successfully on X, I don't have any experience with
VirtualBox, though.

I hope this helps

  Thank you Michael for the suggestion,

I don't understand why you are using the withdraw() before.
Now on my linux, it pops up the window (with Tk dimensions) then it 
remove it and then it displays it correctly with my dimensions.

Cheers
Vasilis

The .withdraw() should be right after the statement that creates the Toplevel window.  Creating it, then making the call to this def show() is giving the system time to make the window visible.  If the Toplevel() and the .withdraw() are together the window doesn't show up until the .deiconify().

This does actuallly not happen here (with IceWm), unless update_idletasks
() or update() are called somewhere in between, maybe it's Wm dependent
behavior? Anyway, in real world code you are surely right, withdraw()
should be called right after window creation.

Michael

  Hi all,

  For many reasons, but mainly just for fun, I made some tkinter
documentation in pixel graphics.

  I'd like to share what I made, here it is..!

[image: grid_layout.png][image: button.png]

  It's pretty exhausting work, making letters pixel by pixel, but I like the
results (assuming you can even see them.)

  If I receive encouragement and interesting criticism, I think I'll be
motivated to make a few more.  {:)}=
  I think next, I want to document row & column configuration on the Grid,
and perhaps how Images work.

  Please feel free to share these however you like.

  Take care,
    Lion

Subject: [Tkinter-discuss]  Callback when insertion cursor moves
Message-ID: <29851368.post@talk.nabble.com>


Hi there,

I have two text widgets. I have managed to program these so that they can be
scrolled by the same scroll bars. However, if I move the cursor position in
one widget, how can I get it to also move in the other widget?

Thanks for your help,

Barry
