I'm strugling a little with TK, and the docs on the web aren't helping much.
I've already rewritten about twelve times a basic class that was supposed to simply draw a window. It's not even close the final draft, but i tought "well, let's start with something easy that can be done in less than an hour"... silly me. But keep reading, it's not just to vent my frustations :)
The main issue here is: How to use TK eficiently.
I'm already planing another post about the pack/grid/place-power-trio but for now: what's the better, most scalable and less cumbersome way to use Tk?
1. Windows
a) hide Tkroot in __main__ and call the class, whom willcreate it's own windows.
b) let __main__ pass the root window and make the class always require a parent.
c) what's the "industry standandard" for a single or dual window small app? (no, it's not java, wrong topic)
2. Buttons
What's the nicer way to pass arguments directly in a button action?
I don't know if this one is me just being dumb. but `Button(..., command=doit(1) )` doesn't work for me and i haven't seen it in any doc... I came to the point of writing:
btnHd = Button(..., command=self.__fileBrowseH)
btnCd = Button(..., command=self.__fileBrowseC)
btnFd = Button(..., command=self.__fileBrowseF)
and self.__fileBrowse/[CHF]/() being just a wraper for self.__fileBrowse('/[chf]/')
...And don't miss on this same channel: my indignation with Tk's positioning systems :P
Thanks!
