hi guys anyone can help me? Im new to programming and Im trying to do a small project using tkinter.. basically my problem is how can I make it so when I choose an option from a combobox the tab on the ttk notebook will also be selected and vice versa... thanks in advance
import tkinter as tk
from tkinter import ttk
class Main(tk.Tk):
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)
container = ttk.Frame(self)
container.grid()
frame = Frame(container, self)
frame.grid(column=0, row=0)
notebook = Notebook(container, self)
notebook.grid(column=1, row=0)
class Frame(ttk.Frame):
def __init__(self, parent, controller, *args, **kwargs):
super().__init__(parent, *args, **kwargs)
combobox = ttk.Combobox(self)
combobox["values"] = ["a", "b", "c"]
combobox.grid()
class Notebook(ttk.Notebook):
def __init__(self, parent, controller, *args, **kwargs):
super().__init__(parent, *args, **kwargs)
first = ttk.Frame(self)
second = ttk.Frame(self)
third = ttk.Frame(self)
self.add(first, text="a")
self.add(second, text="b")
self.add(third, text="c")
root = Main()
root.mainloop()
Try below full code,
import tkinter as tk
from tkinter import ttk
class Main(tk.Tk):
def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)
container = ttk.Frame(self)
container.grid()
frame = Frame(container, self)
frame.grid(column=0, row=0)
notebook = Notebook(container, self)
notebook.grid(column=1, row=0)
class Frame(ttk.Frame):
options=["a", "b", "c"]
def __init__(self, parent, controller, *args, **kwargs):
super().__init__(parent, *args, **kwargs)
Frame.combobox = ttk.Combobox(self)
self.combobox["values"] = self.options
self.combobox.grid()
class Notebook(ttk.Notebook):
def __init__(self, parent, controller, *args, **kwargs):
super().__init__(parent, *args, **kwargs)
first = ttk.Frame(self)
second = ttk.Frame(self)
third = ttk.Frame(self)
self.add(first, text="a")
self.add(second, text="b")
self.add(third, text="c")
Frame.combobox.bind("<<ComboboxSelected>>", self.on_selection)
self.bind("<<NotebookTabChanged>>",self.on_tab_selection)
def on_selection(self,a):
selected=Frame.combobox.get()
Frame.options.index(selected)
self.select(Frame.options.index(selected))
def on_tab_selection(self,a):
Frame.combobox.set(Frame.options[self.index("current")])
root = Main()
root.mainloop()
Some modifications are made,
Frame.combobox.bind("<<ComboboxSelected>>", self.on_selection)
self.bind("<<NotebookTabChanged>>",self.on_tab_selection)
above code is used to take the selection events of notebook and combobox
def on_selection(self,a):
selected=Frame.combobox.get()
Frame.options.index(selected)
self.select(Frame.options.index(selected))
def on_tab_selection(self,a):
Frame.combobox.set(Frame.options[self.index("current")])
Above two functions are made to handle both events
combobox values are put in a variable list "Options"
