multiframe_list.py
Compact raw python module that brings the MultiframeList class with it.
It is a tkinter widget that can be used to display data split up over multiple columns.
Able to read into the ttk styling database and apply certain style configurations to
otherwise unstylable Listboxes and exists exclusively because I didn't know about
ttk.Treeview
and was too stubborn to drop existing code.
Installation
Get it by running pip install multiframe_list
.
Example:
import tkinter as tk
from multiframe_list import MultiframeList
def format_price(raw):
dollars, cents = divmod(raw, 100)
return f"${dollars}.{cents:0>2}"
items = (
("Apple", 79, 42),
("Pear", 79, 58),
("Egg", 29, 24),
("HL3", 99999999903, 1),
)
root = tk.Tk()
item_display = MultiframeList(root, inicolumns = (
{"name": "Items", "col_id": "col_items", "sort": False},
{"name": "Price", "col_id": "col_prices", "sort": True,
"formatter": format_price},
{"name": "Stock", "col_id": "col_qty", "sort": False},
))
item_display.set_data({
"col_items": [t[0] for t in items],
"col_prices": [t[1] for t in items],
"col_qty": [t[2] for t in items],
})
# Required for the price formatter.
# If not called, the column would display raw values.
item_display.format()
# item_display.format(("col_prices",)) # would have the same effect.
item_display.grid(sticky = "nesw")
root.mainloop()
