In this case I would try the StringVar()'s trace method, which you can use to
track changes of its value; a simple example:
>>> from Tkinter import *
>>> root = Tk()
>>> s = StringVar()
>>> s.set('a')
>>> om = OptionMenu(root, s, 'a', 'b', 'c', 'd')
>>> om.pack()
>>> def changed(*args):
... print s.get()
...
>>> s.trace('w', changed)
In the example changed() is called each time you select an item in the menu and
with
s.get() you can query the current selection and update the window according to
the current value.
I hope this helps
Michael
