[cells-devel] Celtk: background not getting set/sent for entry widget
Me again - Hi! When creating an entry widget as (mk-entry :id :data-entry :width 40 :parent-x 65 :parent-y 115 :background (c_? (required-field-color (fm-parent self)))) where the background depends on the value of the parent's required- field-color slot I never get any background color set. No, the dependency does not cause this - I get the same effect when directly specifying a color ... I then tried to narrow this down and found out that Celtk never passes the background option to Tk via tk-format-now... Any help appreciated ... (Yes, ahem, I know that this lies somewhere in the deftk macro, Kenny .. Or am I wrong here? ;-) Thx! Frank

make-tk-instance calls tk-format-now with the following string: entry .msg-workarea.data-entry -width 40 -textvariable .msg- workarea.data-entry Does this imply the :background should appear before the placing parameters ?? ... Frank
Heya - solved! It does not depend on the order of the parameters. Was a simple bug I had in my code... - Sorry for that ;-) Frank Am 06.01.2007 um 23:49 schrieb Frank Goenninger:
