Hi Alan,
I had done what you suggested here, I also tried creating another file for
that snipet of the code to see if that section works. The other file works,
but I am not able to figure out why the original one doesn't work.
The variable here is entrynumberspeciesvar
Code:
from Tkinter import *
import datetime
import tkMessageBox
from tkFileDialog import *
from tkMessageBox import *
root = Tk()
root.title("Design of Experiments with Parameter Estimation")
root.geometry("1000x1000")
statusvar = StringVar()
statusvar = "Status Bar"
var1 = IntVar()
var2 = IntVar()
var3 = IntVar()
var4 = IntVar()
varreac = IntVar()
varint = IntVar()
varpro = IntVar()
varconc = IntVar()
vartemp = IntVar()
entrynumberspeciesvar = IntVar()
def DesignPoint():
print "Inside Design Point"
rootdesign=Tk()
rootdesign.title("Design Point Suggestions")
rootdesign.geometry("700x400")
frame1 = Frame(rootdesign)
frame1.grid(row=0, column=0)
label1 = Label(frame1, text="1. Responses to include: ")
label1.grid(row=0, column=0,sticky=W)
Label(frame1, text = "Number of species:").grid(row=0, column = 1,
sticky=W)
entrynumberspecies = Entry(frame1, textvariable = entrynumberspeciesvar)
entrynumberspecies.grid(row=0, column = 2, sticky=W)
# print entrynumberspeciesvar.get()
checkreac = Checkbutton(frame1, text = "Reactant species", variable =
varreac)
checkreac.grid(row = 1, column = 1, sticky = W)
checkreac.select()
Checkbutton(frame1, text = "Intermediate species", variable =
varint).grid(row = 2, column = 1, sticky = W)
Checkbutton(frame1, text = "Product species", variable =
varpro).grid(row = 3, column = 1, sticky = W)
def Default():
print "Inside default"
var1.set(0)
var2.set(0)
var3.set(0)
var4.set(1)
Checkbutton(frame1, text = "Vertices", variable=var1, onvalue=1,
offvalue=0).grid(row=1, column = 2, sticky=W)
Checkbutton(frame1, text = "Edges", variable=var2).grid(row=2, column =
2, sticky=W)
Checkbutton(frame1, text = "Faces", variable=var3).grid(row=3, column =
2, sticky=W)
check = Checkbutton(frame1, text = "Center", variable=var4)
check.grid(row=4, column = 2, sticky=W)
check.select()
Label(frame1, text="2. Variables to be adjusted:").grid(row=5,
column=0,sticky=W)
Checkbutton(frame1, text = "Concentration", variable=varconc,
onvalue=1, offvalue=0).grid(row=5, column = 1, sticky=W)
Checkbutton(frame1, text = "Temperature", variable=vartemp).grid(row=6,
column = 1, sticky=W)
def InsertRange():
print "Inside InsertRange"
# entrynumberspeciesvar.set(2)
print entrynumberspeciesvar.get()
for i in range(entrynumberspeciesvar.get()):
textvar = StringVar()
print i
textvar = "\t Conc"+str(i)
Label(frame1, text=textvar).grid(row=(9+i), column=0,sticky=W)
conclowerentry = Entry(frame1)
conclowerentry.grid(row= (9+i), column = 1, sticky = W)
concupperentry = Entry(frame1)
concupperentry.grid(row= (9+i), column = 2, sticky = W)
Label(frame1, text="3. Range of formulation:").grid(row=7,
column=0,sticky=W)
Button(frame1, text = "Insert Range", command = InsertRange()).grid(row
= 7, column = 3, sticky=W)
Label(frame1, text="Lower Limit").grid(row=7, column=1,sticky=W)
Label(frame1, text="Upper Limit").grid(row=7, column=2,sticky=W)
Label(frame1, text="\t Temperature").grid(row=8, column=0,sticky=W)
templowerentry = Entry(frame1, text="0.0")
templowerentry.grid(row= 8, column = 1, sticky = W)
tempupperentry = Entry(frame1)
tempupperentry.grid(row= 8, column = 2, sticky = W)
rootdesign.mainloop()
## Secondary menu bar:
menusec = Frame(root, bg="white")
butt1 = Button(menusec, text="Part One", command=DesignPoint)
butt1.pack(side=LEFT, padx=1)
menusec.pack(side=TOP, fill=X)
### --- Status bar ---- ####
Status = Label(root, text = statusvar, bd=1, relief=SUNKEN, anchor=W)
Status.pack(side=BOTTOM, fill=X)
text = Text(root, width=1000, height = 400)
text.pack(side=BOTTOM)
root.mainloop()
I have removed other parts of the code and included only the ones related
to the entry box and the work that I need to do.
I also tried doing it in another file as mentioned before. That works the
exact way I want.
Code:
from Tkinter import *
rootdesign=Tk()
rootdesign.title("Design Point Suggestions")
rootdesign.geometry("650x400")
frame1 = Frame(rootdesign)
frame1.grid(row=0, column=0)
entrynumberspeciesvar = IntVar()
## Inserting Checkboxes:
label1 = Label(frame1, text="1. Responses to include: ")
label1.grid(row=0, column=0,sticky=W )
Label(frame1, text = "Number of species:").grid(row=0, column = 1, sticky=W)
entrynumberspecies = Entry(frame1, textvariable = entrynumberspeciesvar)
entrynumberspecies.grid(row=0, column = 2, sticky=W)
def Print():
print entrynumberspeciesvar.get()
for i in range(entrynumberspeciesvar.get()):
print i
textvar = "\t Conc"+str(i+1)
Label(frame1, text=textvar).grid(row=(9+i), column=0,sticky=W)
conclowerentry = Entry(frame1)
conclowerentry.grid(row= (9+i), column = 1, sticky = W)
concupperentry = Entry(frame1)
concupperentry.grid(row= (9+i), column = 2, sticky = W)
Button(frame1, text = "Click", command = Print).grid(row = 2, column = 2,
sticky = W)
Label(frame1, text="\t Temperature").grid(row=8, column=0,sticky=W)
templowerentry = Entry(frame1, text="0.0")
templowerentry.grid(row= 8, column = 1, sticky = W)
tempupperentry = Entry(frame1)
tempupperentry.grid(row= 8, column = 2, sticky = W)
rootdesign.mainloop()
Please let me know where I am going wrong. Thank you so much.
