Hello,
Owen's help on my testing codes did work(Thanks). But then i face other
problems when i go do my app. So i'll have restate my original question.
I'd like to create a [back] and a [next] button to change window layout.
So that a click on [next] Changes the current layout to a new layout and [back]
takes it back to the prev one.
|-----------------------| |------------------------|
| | | -Frame----------------||
| -Opening window- | | | -window layout 2- ||
| | | | <> item_n ||
| | | | <> item_m ||
| | | |_____________________||
|_______________________| |________________________|
| <exit> <next> | clicked <next> | <back> <next> |
|_______________________| |________________________|
click on <back> will take me back to Opening window. (I hope the drawings make
sense). There'll be about 6 different layouts.
Here's what i thougth would work(but didnt of course)
create a toplevel_window (that contains a vbox)
vbox
pack dialog_windows into vbox
hbox
pack hbox into vbox
pack the two buttons into hbox
add callback functions to buttons that show/hide the windows
so that only one dialog_window is visible.
I did exactly that, and it shows just the dialog_window. My hbox with the
buttons arent there.
Is this approach correct? Can i pack a dialog_window into a box?.
I thougth of another way which is to show/hide the widgets themselves on the
toplevel_window to change the layout rather than to hide/show the
dialog_windows. But it seems tedious and doesnt sound right.
Any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
