I'm trying to bind a key to a command, but it doesn't seem to be working. As far as I know, I need to bind it to the dialogue, which is what I'm doing, and nothing happens.
I don't get any errors, the program runs fine, but when I press the key nothing happens.
Code def createWidgets(self):
#self.rowconfigure(0, weight=1)
#self.columnconfigure(0, weight=1)
self.quitButton = Button(self, text="Exit", command=self.closer)
self.okButton = Button(self, text="Ok", command=self.check)
self.urlField = Entry(self)
self.urlLabel = Label(self, text="URL:")
self.urlField.bind("<Return>", self.check)
self.bind("<F6>", self.worked)
self.urlLabel.grid(row=0, sticky=W, padx=5, pady=10)
self.urlField.grid(row=0, column=1, padx=5)
self.okButton.grid(row=0, column=2, padx=5, pady=20)
self.quitButton.grid(row=1)
Which is part of the class
Code class Application(Frame):
Any help? :]

I've not used classes before but as far as I know your widgets must be included in the "master" window like this:
Code
master = Tk()
quitbutton=Button(master, text="Quit", command=master.destroy)
I'm a GUI beginner like you are so I might be wrong about this :P

Sorry, I should have pointed out... the buttons and everything all work.. I just posted such a big chunk of code so people could get an idea where the bit that doesn't work is.
It's just the "self.bind(blahblahblah)" that doesn't work.
Even the "self.urlField.bind(blahblahblah)" works.

If your trying to bind a key event to a parent widget like a frame, you have to use bind_all() instead of bind(). |
