[Pythoncard-users] sending parameter from child window to parent?

[Alec B. <wry...@gm...>]

I'm wondering if anyone might give me a clue about how to send a parameter
from a child window to the parent? I have the child window launched, it can
set gui components in the parent (for example
self.parent.components.whatever.text = "hello"), and the parent can set gui
components in the child, but I'm unable to set variables directly.

I'm building the child/parent relationship the way David does in this
tutorial:

http://pythoncard.sourceforge.net/walkthrough3.html

I could use some duct tape and have a thread checking the contents of a text
field that I set from the other window, but that's just so ugly.

I've gone through all the samples and all the documentation I could find and
can't figure it out.

Anyone?
