Is there a way to have the items of a Tkinter Listbox be Entry Widgets? The result would be that you could dynamically modify the text in an Listbox entry. If your Listbox looks like:
--------
| Apples |
| Pears |
| Oranges |
---------
then you would want to be able to click on Apples and write some arbitrary text - you could then bind the Enter key, say, to trigger a function based on the new text.
you could give the user some entries then create a listbox from that input
but you cant just change a listboxes text like that
maybe try a different GUI Library like WX
EDIT
here is something you can do:
from Tkinter import *
root = Tk()
opt_list = ['opt1','opt2','opt3','opt4','opt5']
sel_list = []
def get_sel():
sel_list.append(Lb1.curselection())
root.destroy()
def change_opt():
entry = E.get()
change = entry.split(" ")
print change
Lb1.insert(int(change[0]),change[1])
root.update()
def cancel():
root.destroy()
E = Entry(root)
A = Button(root, text ="Change", command = change_opt)
B = Button(root, text ="Submit", command = get_sel)
C = Button(root, text ="Cancel", command = cancel)
Lb1 = Listbox(root, selectmode=MULTIPLE)
for i,j in enumerate(opt_list):
Lb1.insert(i,j)
Lb1.pack()
B.pack()
C.pack()
E.pack()
A.pack()
root.mainloop()
this will make a listbox with the options in opt_list
then when you type for example 5 hello
the entry and press Change it will add the option hello
to the fifth place
thats the only way i can think of
