Example, in my application I have one text widget for code editing, one other text widget for viewing this code after some preprocessor. Also, I found this widget useful in some other situations. P.S: may be it will be good to add my code to widget::scrolledtext, but this at your discretion. andreas_kupries added on 2012-02-23 02:08:32: Some questions after reading the code: Your rotext seems to disable interactive editing (i.e. anything done through the bindings), and allow non-interactive (programmatic) editing. Is that right ? Is this based per-chance on some code on the Tcler's Wiki (http://wiki.tcl.tk) ? If yes, that are the page numbers ? Note that an alternative way of doing a rotext is wrap around text and disable the 'insert' and 'delete' method, without touching the bindings . This will disable all editing, interactive and programmatic. The latter can then be restored by providing differently named methods for programmatic access. daapp added on 2012-01-28 18:44:57: File Added - 434231: rotext-0.1.tm | |||
