[text] Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Donald Arseneau (djarseneau) >Assigned to: Jeffrey Hobbs (hobbs) Summary: no selection from disabled entry Initial Comment: Selection of text from a disabled entry widget no longer works, starting at some version at or before 8.4.7 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Donald Arseneau (djarseneau) Date: 2006-08-09 05:18 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=611156 Thanks. Looking at the original item (220689) it is clear that the change to text selection was deliberate, and not an accidental side-effect. (Not that I like it, but c'est la vie.) So I guess this item may as well be closed. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Date: 2006-07-25 13:45 Message: Logged In: NO RFE 4239 from the old Scriptics bug database is known in the SourceForge Bug Tracker as 220689. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Donald Arseneau (djarseneau) Date: 2006-07-25 10:12 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=611156 OK, I see where it changed due to a feature request (RFE: 4239) that is neither a sourceforge FR nor a TIP. Dropping text selection was a wrong choice; it views text selection as an action of the widget, rather than as a facility of the system. Tk suffers from having the former orientation. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=112997&aid=1526437&group_id=12997 |
