Re: [Pmw-general] How to disable a NoteBook?

[Greg M. <gr...@in...>]

Good question.

Here is some code that might do the trick.  Call
    setwidgetstate(notebook, 'disabled')
when you don't want the user playing with the notebook, and then call
    setwidgetstate(notebook, 'normal')
when they can.

==================================================================
# Set the state of <widget> to <state> and then recursively do the
# same to all its children.
# <state> should be 'normal' or 'disabled'.
# Should work for most widget trees.
def setwidgetstate(widget, state):
    try:
        widget.configure(state = state)
    except:
        pass
    for child in widget.winfo_children():
        setwidgetstate(child, state)
==================================================================
