[issue5961] Missing labelside option for Tix option menu (fix included)
Cary R. added the comment: That is the manual I am referencing and the last time I looked it was the most recent. I'm not to familiar with the Python port of Tix, but I am using the command, label, state, and variable options and they already work fine. I could try the other options if that would help. I needed the labelside functionality so I hacked Tix.py to get it to work. I mimicked the code from other objects that have a labelside option. My assumption was that some base class knew how to handle many of the standard options, but did not know about labelside. It is possible that there is a better way to handle this (add it to the same place the others are implemented), but that would have required understanding the class hierarchy and much more work. At the time I just needed to get it to work and what I proposed does work and is consistent with other objects. Since I was not using the other options I did not check them. Let me know if there is anything else I can do to help. -- ___ Python tracker <http://bugs.python.org/issue5961> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue5961] Missing labelside option for Tix option menu (fix included)
New submission from Cary R. : The Tix Optionmenu is documented to support a labelside option that is used to specify where the label should be relative to the selection. I have verified that adding 'labelside' to the static_options when calling the base constructor (TixWidget.__init__) located in Tix.py line 1185 (for both 2.5.4 and 2.6.2) fixes the problem. TixWidget.__init__(self, ... ,['labelside', 'options'], ... ) I am currently using 2.5.4, but a fix only for the 2.6 branch is acceptable for all but my personal machine (which I can patch by hand). I am not very familiar with how all this works, so if there is something I can do from my code to add this option that would be nice to know. -- components: Tkinter messages: 87388 nosy: caryr severity: normal status: open title: Missing labelside option for Tix option menu (fix included) type: feature request versions: Python 2.6 ___ Python tracker <http://bugs.python.org/issue5961> ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
