Yes, I > know, I can use a -textvariable on the combobox, but you get the jist. But there is a no -textvariable for a text widget, or other more complex client areas. Yes, I've seen this be an issue before - there should be an option to withdraw the dialog without destroying it. Possibly in line with the persistent dialogs mentioned? Also useful as a feature where dialogs would be reused (even maintaining last state). Perhaps all a bit too much for a simple API, but delayed destruction is important. Jef |
