python Tix - how to clear a combobox -


how clear items in tix.combobox object? tried things

cb.entry.delete (0, tix.end) 

and other veriations of function doesn't seem anything. not clear api function should use , doc i've read nothing it. possible??

thanks!

edit: ps deleting item name great. couldn't find how either.

as the docs say, combobox has entry subwidget, , listbox subwidget. see the wikipedia page on combo boxes in general: something else part entry, , list item 1 etc. parts listbox.

so, cb.entry.delete valid, it's deleting contents of entry subwidget. doesn't affect of items in listbox.


so, how listbox? well, in tcl/tk, can access cb.listbox. doesn't work in python/tkinter.

if @ the source, can see combobox doesn't have 2 sub-widgets, five, none of listbox or named listbox:

entry       entry arrow       button slistbox    scrolledlistbox tick        button cross       button : present if created fancy option 

(you should able see help(tix.combobox) in interactive interpreter.)

but scrolledlistbox another tix composite widget, without useful on own, still need find listbox sub-sub-widget. @ or source , it'll show scrolledlistbox has listbox. fortunately, is listbox (well, _dummylistbox, that's listbox subclass knows how tix subwidget).

so, really want cb.slistbox.listbox.

(i believe tcl/tk forwards along attribute references, while python/tkinter doesn't, why tix , other fancy tk wrappers , extensions aren't nice use python tk docs make them appear.)


note that, docs listbox say, 0 refers first entry, , end last entry, arguments in call correct.

so, long story short, should it:

cb.slistbox.listbox.delete(0, tix.end) 

and should know how find similar cases in future. (assuming you're not traumatized tix avoid completely.)


meanwhile, far know, there's no way delete name, it's not hard yourself. iterate entries , check them:

for in range(cb.slistbox.listbox.size()):     if cb.slistbox.listbox.get(i) == name:         cb.slistbox.listbox.delete(i)         break
